| Sumario: | Philipp Mainländer's 'La filosofía de la redención' is a profound philosophical work exploring themes of existentialism, divine will, and redemption. Written in 1876, it delves into the metaphysical idea that the universe originated from the divine self-destruction, akin to the Big Bang, where God chose non-existence. The book argues that life serves as a means to achieve ultimate peace through death, presenting a pessimistic worldview. Mainländer critically engages with the doctrines of Kant and Schopenhauer, offering a unique synthesis of ideas across six chapters covering cognition, physics, aesthetics, ethics, politics, and metaphysics. This edition includes a newly translated exegesis and unpublished annexes, providing a comprehensive analysis of Mainländer's thought. The work is aimed at scholars and readers interested in 19th-century German philosophy and its implications for contemporary civilization and environmental discourse.
