Eros and Self-Emptying - The Intersections of Augustine and Kierkegaard (Paperback)

In this book -- the first volume in the Kierkegaard as a Christian
Thinker series -- Lee Barrett offers a novel comparative
interpretation of early church father Augustine and
nineteenth-century philosopher-theologian Soren Kierkegaard. Though
these two intellectual giants have been paired by historians of
Western culture, the exact nature of their similarities and
differences has never before been probed in detail. Barrett
demonstrates that on many essential theological levels Augustine
and Kierkegaard were more convergent than divergent. Most
significantly, their parallels point to a distinctive understanding
of the Christian life as a passion for self-giving love.
Approaching Kierkegaard through the lens of Augustine, Barrett
argues, enables the theme of desire for fulfillment in God to be
seen as much more central to Kierkegaard's thought than previously
imagined.
