SAren Kierkegaard wrote that Pietism is 'the one and only
consequence of Christianity'. Praise of this sort - particularly
when coupled with Kierkegaard's significant personal connections to
the movement in Christian spirituality known as Pietism - would
seem to demand thorough investigation. And yet, Kierkegaard's
relation to Pietism has been largely neglected in the secondary
literature. Kierkegaard, Pietism and Holiness fills this scholarly
gap and, in doing so, provides the first full-length study of
Kierkegaard's relation to the Pietist movement. First accounting
for Pietism's role in Kierkegaard's social, ecclesial, and
intellectual background, Barnett goes on to demonstrate Pietism's
impact on Kierkegaard's published authorship, principally regarding
the relationship between Christian holiness and secular culture.
This book not only establishes Pietism as a formative influence on
Kierkegaard's life and thinking, but also sheds fresh light on
crucial Kierkegaardian concepts, from the importance of
'upbuilding' to the imitation of Christ.
