There has been a recent revival of interest in reading Kierkegaard
as an ontologist, as a thinker who engages with questions about the
kinds of entity or process that constitute ultimate reality. This
new way of reading Kierkegaard stands alongside a revival of
interest in ontology and metaphysics more generally. This highly
original book concentrates on the claim that Kierkegaard focuses in
part on ontological questions and on issues pertaining to the
nature of being as a whole. Alison Assiter asserts that Being, for
Kierkegaard, following Schelling, can be read in terms of
conceptions of birthing-the capacity to give birth as well as the
notion of a birthing body. She goes on to argue that the story
offered by Kierkegaard in The Concept of Anxiety about the origin
of freedom connects with a birthing body, and that Kierkegaard
offers a speculative hypothesis, in terms of metaphors of birthing,
about the nature of Being.
