Kierkegaard and the Legitimacy of the Comic

Understanding the Relevance of Irony, Humor, and the Comic for Ethics and Religion

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Kierkegaard makes a controversial and little-understood claim: irony, humor, and the comic are essential to ethics and religion. This account, grounded in Concluding Unscientific Postscript, explicates that idea for a philosophical and theological audience with a level of conceptual analysis never seen before in Kierkegaard scholarship.
