【 摘 要 】

In "On the basis of morality”, Schopenhauer admits as a criterion for an action to be endowed with moral value the absence of any selfish motivation. This assumption is the reliable criterion for assigning moral values to the actions, and it shows that the basis of all moral action is not selfish motivation. Thus, the assertion "the absence of any selfish motivation is therefore the criterion for an action to be endowed with moral value" is, indeed, a concise response to the question posed to the prize by the Royal Danish Society, and the “On the basis of morality" is written competitor. So, we begin with the response, with the criterion for assigning moral value or not. Assuming the criterion, we will pervade schopenhauerian argument starting with the moral valuation, then by the possibility of moral action and, concluding, with the metaphysical foundation of morality. So that, the questions that we propose about the philosopher's arguments should guide us.
