“A trite, nauseatingly repulsive, ignorant charlatan without esprit, who with unexampled impertinence scribbled together twaddle and nonsense, which his venal adherents trumpeted forth … the hollowest farrago of words devoid of sense that ever satisfied dunderheads … repulsive … recalls the ravings of madmen.” This is a philosophical critique by one of Germany’s greatest philosophers, Schopenhauer, of another of Germany’s greatest philosophers, Hegel.
