In this delightful little essay, Schopenhauer analyzes a series of tricks that can help someone prevail in an argument regardless of whether they are right or wrong and regardless of the substance of the issue.
The sophistries and misleading methods that the great philosopher unabashedly proposes often bring a smile to the reader’s face. Reaching the conclusion of the text, however, one realizes that everything that came before ultimately seems more like an exercise in irony and is meant to serve as a warning: “Barely one in a hundred people is worthy of arguing with. Let the rest say whatever they want—after all, everyone has a right to stupidity.”
