While Kierkegaard is primarily known as a philosopher or religious
thinker, his writings have also been used extensively by literary
writers, critics and artists worldwide who have been attracted to
his creative mixing of genres, his complex use of pseudonyms, his
rhetoric and literary style, and his rich images, parables, and
allegories. The goal of the present volume is to document this
influence in different language groups and traditions. Tome I
explores Kierkegaard's influence on literature and art in the
Germanophone world. He was an important source of inspiration for
German writers such as Theodor Fontane, Thomas Mann, Rainer Maria
Rilke, Alfred Andersch, and Martin Walser. Kierkegaard's influence
was particularly strong in Austria during the generation of
modernist authors such as Rudolf Kassner, Karl Kraus, Robert Musil,
and Hermann Broch. Due presumably in part to the German
translations of Kierkegaard in the Austrian cultural journal Der
Brenner, Kierkegaard continued to be used by later figures such as
the novelist and playwright, Thomas Bernhard. His thought was also
appropriated in Switzerland through the works of Max Frisch and
Friedrich DA1/4rrenmatt. The famous Czech author Franz Kafka
identified personally with Kierkegaard's love story with Regine
Olsen and made use of his reflections on this and other topics.
