The Art of Controversy
Arthur Schopenhauer
Book Overview:
The Art of Controversy (or The Art of Being Right) is a short treatise by the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer in which he presents thirty-eight methods of gaining an unfair advantage in a debate and thereby being right even if you are wrong. Schopenhauer champions the virtue of dialectical argument, in his view wrongly neglected by philosophers in favor of logic, and goes on to discuss the distinction between our conscious intellectual powers and our will. The text is a favorite of debaters including the philosophers AC Grayling and Mary Warnock, and the Mayor of London Boris Johnson.

II. The two courses that we may pursue are (1) the direct, and (2) the indirect refutation. The direct attacks the reason for the thesis; the indirect, its results. The direct refutation shows that the thesis is not true; the indirect, that it cannot be true.
The direct course admits of a twofold procedure. Either we may show that the reasons for the statement are false (nego majorem, minorem); or we may admit the reasons or premisses, but show that the statement does not follow from them (nego consequentiam); that is, we attack the conclusion or form of the syllogism.

دوستانِ گرانقدر، در کل باید قبول کرد که مغلطه کارِ درستی نیست، ولی اگر شما بر روشهایِ مغلطه تسلط داشته باشید، میتوانید در صورتِ برخورد با مغلطه گران و سفسطه بازان در زندگیِ روزمره، توانِ مقابله با آنها را داشته باشید... تعدادِ روشهایِ مغالطه بسیار بسیار بیشتر از چیزیست که شوپنهاورِ بزرگ در این کتاب
O carte folositoare și amuzantă. Autorul a redactat-o pe la 1830-1831. Nu se știe prea bine în ce scop. Poate și-a dorit o controversă cu Hegel și se pregătea teoretic (și practic) pentru ea. Din păcate, Hegel a murit în 1831 de holeră. Da, da, în timpul unei epidemii.

اگر پیش از این نگاهی به فهرست مغاطلات معمول انداخته باشید (مثلاً اینجا)، این کتاب چندان بار معرفتی بیشتری برای شما ندارد. چندان هم منسجم نیست. تکرار هم زیاد دارد. فکر می‌کردم نثرش شیرین باشد و سرشار از طنز، ولی چنین هم نیست.
اگر خیلی کتاب در صف دارید، نگاهی بیندازید به این صفحه در در ویکی‌پدیا در مور

کتاب های «مغالطات» (مغالطات، هنر شفاف اندیشیدن، و...) پیشفرضی اساسی دارند: این امید که حقیقت قابل دستیابی است و روش شُسته‌رُفته و معیّنی برای دستیابی به آن وجود دارد که در وهلهٔ اول بر زبان و ساختار منطقی زبان تکیه دارد. به این ترتیب که اگر ما ساختار جملات‌مان را به شکل خاصی صورت‌بندی کنیم و آنها ر
"وليس يمكن مجادلة شخص ينكر المبادئ"
عن فن أن تكون دائما على صواب أو الجدل المرائي, وكلمة المرائي مشتقة من الرياء, والتي تعطي معنى إظهار عكس ما يبطن, فعندما نقول الجدل المرائي فيكون القصد هو الجدل المدِّلس, وهو تعبير أطلقه شوبنهاور على كل ما كان يحاربه سقراط ومن بعده في السفسطائيون, ويستخدم الناس الج
