Transcendental philosophy and metaphysics of the will: Schopenhauer's critique of the Kantian concept of metaphysics

The Schopenhauer's metaphysics of will is structured from a critical reception of the Kantian transcendental philosophy. To develop his own conception of metaphysics, the philosopher starts from Kant's critique of dogmatic metaphysics, on the one hand and on the other, affirms his departure from the Kantian conception of metaphysics. In this paper we shall try to present the project of founding an immanent metaphysics by Schopenhauer, in which the author affirms both his debt to Kant and his distance from the systematic project of German idealism.
