Kierkegaard and Great Philosophers

Описание

The present volume brings to the reader a set of articles focusing on Søren Kierkegaard’s connection to prominent figures in the Western intellectual tradition, with the aim of presenting Kierkegaard’s thought in the broader context of the history of philosophy and the history of ideas. The ideological legacy of the Danish thinker is analysed in connection with philosophers and theologians who yeilded inspiration for his thinking, in the light of the work of his contemporaries, and from the perspective of the reception of his thought in the 20th and 21st centuries. The studies collected in this volume are not limited exclusively for specialist readers of Kierkegaard’s philosophy; rather they are offered to all those who wish to become familiar with Kierkegaard’s place in the history of Western philosophy, theology, and literature.
