Eiristische Dialektik

Book •
Arthur Schopenhauer's "Eristische Dialektik" is a treatise on the art of winning arguments, regardless of truth.

The work outlines 38 stratagems, or techniques, to outmaneuver opponents in debate.

Schopenhauer emphasizes the use of rhetoric and psychological manipulation to gain the upper hand.

He describes tactics such as exploiting ambiguities, appealing to emotions, and distracting from the main issue.

The book reflects Schopenhauer's broader philosophical views on the competitive and often irrational nature of human interactions.

It remains a cynical yet insightful guide to the dynamics of debate and persuasion.
