The § numbers are Schopenhauer's and stable across the three editions of his lifetime; the ZA page is only a finding aid. Footnote marks and the bracketed page markers of zeno.org are omitted from the quoted originals; nothing else is changed. The appendix stands in vol. 2 of the Zürcher Ausgabe, pp. 509–651 by zeno.org's markers.
Second source, from 2026-10-13: the passages of §§ 24–25 were taken from Projekt Gutenberg-DE (https://projekt-gutenberg.org/authors/arthur-schopenhauer/books/die-welt-als-wille-und-vorstellung-band-i), whose text is Eduard Grisebach's edition, Arthur Schopenhauers sämtliche Werke in sechs Bänden, vol. 1, Reclam, Leipzig 1892, second, repeatedly corrected printing, because zeno.org was unreachable; those passages say so in their source, carry Grisebach's page instead of the ZA page, and keep that edition's orthography. Where the two editions differ in a letter the passage's original is the transcription it names; the § is the locator in both. zeno.org answered again on 2026-10-14, and the appendix passages added that day are from it, with ZA pages, checked against Grisebach's text; two slips of its transcription are named on the passages.
