Summary/Abstract: Love was and remains a theme that often finds treatment in philosophy, literature, mainly viewed from a positive angle, as a source of inspiration, as a contact with the divine, as a way becoming conscious of humanity and human nature. Schopenhauer thinks otherwise, and treats love as merely an illusion that serves the will to live, a will that is evil and brings only suffering. Here this philosopher is seen in relation with Hegel and Kant.
