Abstract
In this article, I analyze the position of Madame de Staël on the pursuit of happiness, the treatment of passions and the role of compassion, three central themes in Schopenhauer, but with which she articulates a different path to the denial of the will and the mere affirmation of the will. Madame de Staël interpreted compassion, that feminine passion par excellence in Schopenhauer, also in a broader way and in which ethics and politics combine in relation to the art of living instead of denying the will.
