Otfried Höffe

He draws heavily from the works of Immanuel Kant and Aristotle, emphasizing the importance of moral virtues and personal responsibility. Höffe believes that true wisdom emerges from life experiences, including the challenges of failure and adversity. His recent book, 'Die hohe Kunst der Weisheit. Kleine Philosophie der Lebensklugheit,' explores the nature of wisdom and its significance in leading a fulfilling life, advocating for a moral philosophy centered on empathy, tolerance, and understanding.
