De qué trata
El tercer y último tomo, que cierra el conjunto con la estética y la negación del querer.
Contexto e historia
Esta traducción inglesa reparte en tres tomos lo que en alemán son dos volúmenes: el libro de 1818 y el volumen de complementos que Schopenhauer le añadió en 1844, veintiséis años después. Los complementos no son apéndices menores: ocupan tanto como la obra original y a menudo se leen mejor allí sus ideas, porque escribe ya sin tener que convencer a nadie de la estructura. Él mismo pedía que el conjunto se leyera dos veces.
Contexto editorial, no una fuente citable: a diferencia de los pasajes de la obra, estos datos no se pueden comprobar contra el corpus.

But through the predominating intellect which here appears not only is the comprehension of motives, their multiplicity, and in general the horizon of the aims infinitely increased, but also the distinctness with which the will is conscious _of itself_ is enhanced in the highest degree in consequence of the clearness of the whole consciousness which has been brought about, which is supported by the capacity for abstract knowledge, and now attains to complete reflectiveness. But thereby, and also through the vehemence of the will, which is necessarily presupposed as the supporter of such a heightened intellect, an intensifying of all the _emotions_ appears, and indeed the possibility of the _passions_, which, properly speaking, are unknown to the brute. For the vehemence of the will keeps pace with the advance of intelligence, because this advance really always springs from the increased needs and pressing demands of the will: besides this, however, the two reciprocally support each other. Thus the vehemence of the character corresponds to the greater energy of the beating of the heart and the circulation of the blood, which physically heighten the activity of the brain. On the other hand, the clearness of the intelligence intensifies the emotions, which are called forth by the outward circumstances, by means of the more vivid apprehension of the latter.…
