Schopenhauer is indeed one of my favorites, mostly because he saw
beauty as the ultimate good and ultimate joy as cherishing the beautiful.
His "Will" reminds of Pirsig's DQ, the free force of life. I'm not aware of
his "postmodern stuff" wherein it's fundamental and universally true that
no judgments are fundamental and universally true. But I'm no
Schopenhauer scholar. Perhaps you can point to some of his
postmodernist-like beliefs.
