Evans' analysis of Kierkegaard's Philosophical Fragments and
Concluding Unscientific Postscript introduces even the
nonspecialist to two of Kierkegaard's most challenging works
without minimizing the complex nature of his philosophy. Evans
honors Kierkegaard's wish not to be confused with his pseudonyms
and so frames the discussion around the thoughts of "Johannes
Climacus." Yet, Evans highlights the similarities between Climacus'
and Kierkegaard's ideas while setting them in conversation with
contemporary philosophers and theologians.The book is divided into
thirteen chapters. The first three set up the book with an
introduction to Kierkegaard's pseudonymous literature as a whole,
an overview of Fragments and Postscript, and a discussion of the
character and views of the Johannes Climacus pseudonym. The next
nine chapters delve into specific pairs of concepts such as
existence and the ethical, truth and subjectivity, and irony and
humor. Evans also explores concepts that illuminate "immanent" or
natural religion, as well as Christianity, understood as a
"transcendent" religion grounded in a special revelation.
Throughout, there is a revealing look at the roles objectivity and
subjectivity play in human existence. Evans concludes his work with
a consideration of Climacus' voice that opens the door for readers
to make their own interpretations and contributions to the
conversation. A careful and lucid guide, Evans' book is a key
companion to Kierkegaard's philosophical writings.
