Kierkegaard's Upbuilding Discourses

Philosophy, Literature, and Theology

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

George Pattison examines the use of language and rhetoric in the discourses and argues that their guiding ideas are regulative principles and maxims that bring Kierkegaard closer to Kant's philosophy. Furthermore, he shows that this approach to the discourses brings them much closer to Kierkegaard's own view of them as 'Socratic' in character, to be understood as much for their philosophical as religious nature.

---

A bold and innovative reassessment of Kierkegaard's Eighteen Upbuilding Discourses and our reading of his work as a whole. The first full length assessment of the discourses in English.
