This volume explores in detail Kierkegaard's various relations to
his German contemporaries. Kierkegaard read German fluently and
made extensive use of the writings of German-speaking authors.
Apart from his contemporary Danish sources, the German sources were
probably the most important in the development of his thought
generally. This volume represents source-work research dedicated to
tracing Kierkegaard's readings and use of the various
German-speaking authors in the different fields in a way that is as
clearly documented as possible. The volume has been divided into
three tomes reflecting Kierkegaard's main areas of interest with
regard to the German-speaking sources, namely, philosophy, theology
and a more loosely conceived category, which has here been
designated "literature and aesthetics." This first tome treats the
German philosophical influences on Kierkegaard. The dependence of
Danish philosophy on German philosophy is beyond question. In a
book review in his Hegelian journal Perseus, the poet, playwright
and critic, Johan Ludvig Heiberg laments the sad state of
philosophy in Denmark, while lauding German speculative philosophy.
Moreover, Kierkegaard's lifelong enemy, the theologian Hans Lassen
Martensen claims without exaggeration that the Danish systems of
philosophy can be regarded as the "disjecta membra" of earlier
German systems. All of the major German idealist philosophers made
an impact in Denmark: Kant, Fichte, Schelling, and most
significantly, Hegel. Kierkegaard was widely read in the German
philosophical literature, which he made use of in countless ways
throughout his authorship.
