El trasfondo ontológico del suicidio en Schopenhauer, Mainländer y Nietzsche

This article presents an ontological reading of suicide in Schopenhauer, Mainländer, and Nietzsche. For this purpose, it first outlines the conceptions of voluntary death held by these three philosophers. This allows us to then highlight the relationship between suicide and ontology, on the one hand, and to explore the connection between a stance in favor or against suicide and a monist or pluralist ontology, on the other. Throughout this discussion, the concepts of necessity, contingency, monism, and pluralism are used, either explicitly or implicitly. This is what allows a reading of suicide from an ontological perspective through these three authors.
