Soren Kierkegaard argued that the most essential truths come to
light by asking "How...?" This innovative collection of essays by
leading scholars focuses on this questioning "How?", asking how we
should relate to ourselves, to others, and to God; how we should be
in the world; how we can become human. The result is a searching,
original colloquium on what it means to be Kierkegaardian in the
21st century. The adjective "Kierkegaardian" names many
possibilities: ways of philosophizing, choosing, loving, looking,
listening, reading, writing, teaching, making art, praying, going
to church - or not going to church. "How" gestures to subjectivity,
one of Kierkegaard's most fundamental philosophical categories,
while "What" signals an objectifying line of thought. The authors
of these essays suggest that the crucial Kierkegaardian question is
not what we are and ought to do, but how we can remain true to the
finitude, passivity, and ambiguity of human existence. While this
Kierkegaardian "how" is often acknowledged by scholars, it is
rarely thematized directly. Attending to it elicits new kinds of
argument and reflection. Kierkegaardian Essays proposes a fresh
approach to Kierkegaard, and is essential reading for experts and
students alike.
