If anyone, therefore refuses to learn from Christianity how to love himself in the right way, he cannot love his neighbor either. This website provides an archive for my teaching and writing on religion and theology, and the reversals which occur therein. It was as true in the nineteenth century as the twenty-first. [2] I want to blog through a piece entitled “My Task” which was the last piece of writing that Kierkegaard intended to publish in the series of writings known as The Moment. I've been spending most of my free time either reading the great books or riding my bike around town. In 1847 the Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard publish his “Christian reflections” on “the works of love.” I have come to believe that Kierkegaard has been largely misunderstood, misrepresented, and therefore ignored by many Christians, to their own detriment. Soren Kierkegaard's “Works of Love” 4 (Self-love: part 1). Or is it that The Tiger Lillies' new album, Either Or, is titled after and inspired by Soren Kierkegaard's famous book of the same name? Clown-on-fire3.jpg So often in academic theology we read as if it's merely about the insightfulness of the arguments. In such a book–especially not as part of that “great cloud of witnesses” evangelicals like to look back to–our heroes and spiritual ancestors. Among the philosophers of the 19th Century, Soren Kierkegaard stands out for several reasons. His pseudonymous works ( you mention several– Fear and Trembling, Sickness Unto Death, Either/Or, et cetera) are excellent, but aren't meant to be taken as direct theology, which makes them a bit difficult to work with. Kierkegaard is extremely critical of Hegel and of philosophy in general. We read a great essay and we applaud. I don't recall ever having read about K. We are perhaps even doing a greater injury to Kierkegaard than the other two, because he expressly saw his writing as having a higher religious purpose than simply being a philosophical treatise or worse an introduction Nonetheless it is important to mark what the limitations of this interpretation are.[1]. As with most writers that have influenced Being and Time directly there is little evidence in the text itself of Kierkegaard.[2] The reasons for this are probably twofold. The first work in the "Either" part is entitled Diapsalmata, which I have transliterated from Kierkegaard's Greek title.
