Use insights from Kierkegaard to explore contemporary problems of
self, time, narrative and death. Is each of us the main character
in a story we tell about ourselves, or is this narrative
understanding of selfhood misguided and possibly harmful? Are
selves and persons the same thing? And what does the possibility of
sudden death mean for our ability to understand the narrative of
ourselves? These questions have been much discussed both in recent
philosophy and by scholars grappling with the work of the enigmatic
19th century thinker Soren Kierkegaard. For the first time, this
collection brings together figures in both contemporary philosophy
and Kierkegaard studies to explore pressing issues in the
philosophy of personal identity and moral psychology. It serves
both to advance important ongoing discussions of selfhood and to
explore the light that, 200 years after his birth, Kierkegaard is
still able to shed on contemporary problems. Brings together
leading figures in a central philosophical debate of ongoing
significance: personal identity; engages with a range of questions
of vital importance for the debate about narrative selfhood and
demonstrates Kierkegaard's capacity to generate new and
illuminating insights for contemporary discussions across a range
of traditions.
