Soren Kierkegaard has been called many things, from brooding genius
and "melancholy Dane" to the father of existentialism. Yet, rather
than clarify the nature of Kierkegaard's writings, such labels have
often obscured other important aspects of his authorship. Such,
indeed, is the case with Kierkegaard's standing as a spiritual
author. In From Despair to Faith: The Spirituality of Soren
Kierkegaard, Christopher B. Barnett endeavors to remedy this
problem. He does so in two overarching ways. First, he orients the
reader to Kierkegaard's grounding in the Christian spiritual
tradition, as well as to the Dane's own authorial stress on themes
such as upbuilding, spiritual journey, and faith. Second, Barnett
maintains that Kierkegaard's spirituality is best understood
through the various "pictures" that populate his authorship. These
pictures are deemed "icons of faith," since Kierkegaard
consistently recommends that the reader contemplate them. In this
way they both represent and communicate what Kierkegaard sees as
the fulfillment of Christian existence.
