Questo articolo analizza "La volontà nella natura" (1836) di Schopenhauer, un libro che generalmente è poco stimato dagli studiosi dell'opera di Schopenhuer. Qui si analizza la genesi del testo nei manoscritti del filosofo, si esamina il suo ruolo nel pensiero di Schopenhauer e in relazione al "Mondo come volontà e rappresentazione", e si individuano i suoi contenuti e significati con riferimento al contesto filosofico e scientifico dell'epoca. Scopo di questo saggio è una migliore comprensione del libro del 1836, a partire da un esame circostanziato del suo tema centrale: la nozione di "Bestätigung", la "conferma" scientifica della conoscenza filosofica.
