Sex and Character - with interlinear translation, Otto Weininger,
translation: Robert Willis. Through the distinction between the man
type and the woman type, the young latter nineteenth-century Viennese
thinker Otto Weininger attempts to bring the contrast of transcendent
individuality and worldly individualism into sharper relief. Even
further, he posits the existence of a deeper psychical realm that
surpasses sexuality and gender, and that ultimately would liberate
mankind of original sin, returning it to its naive state of
innocence. In this undertaking, Weininger uses many philosophical,
religious, empirical, aesthetic, literary, and historical references
of the past to supplement his own insights. This translation follows
the original German verbatim. I have chosen this method in order to
retain its German stylistic character as much as possible.
