The Oxford Handbook of Kierkegaard brings together some of the most
distinguished contemporary contributors to Kierkegaard research
together with some of the more gifted younger commentators on
Kierkegaard's work. There is significant input from scholars based
in Copenhagen's Soren Kierkegaard Research Centre, as well as from
philosophers and theologians from Britain, Germany, and the United
States. Part 1 presents some of the philological, historical, and
contextual work that has been produced in recent years,
establishing a firm basis for the more interpretative essays found
in following parts. This includes looking at the history of his
published and unpublished works, his cultural and social context,
and his relation to Romanticism, German Idealism, the Church, the
Bible, and theological traditions. Part 2 moves from context and
background to the exposition of some of the key ideas and issues in
Kierkegaard's writings. Attention is paid to his style, his
treatment of ethics, culture, society, the self, time, theology,
love, irony, and death. Part 3 looks at the impact of Kierkegaard's
thought and at how it continues to influence philosophy, theology,
and literature. After an examination of issues around translating
Kierkegaard, this section includes comparisons with Nietzsche,
Heidegger, and Wittgenstein, as well as examining his role in
modern theology, moral theology, phenomenology, postmodernism, and
literature.
