This is a new introduction to Kierkegaard, guiding the student
through the key concepts of his work by examining the overall
development of his ideas. Soren Kierkegaard was one of the most
important European philosophers of the nineteenth-century, the
founder of existentialism whose work had a profound influence on
some of the greatest minds of the last two centuries. Clearly and
thematically structured, covering all Kierkegaard's key ideas and
major works, "Starting with Kierkegaard" leads the reader through a
thorough overview of the development of his thought, resulting in a
more complete understanding of the roots of his philosophical
concerns. Offering coverage of the full range of Kierkegaard's
philosophy, the book examines the historical and phliosophical
context of his ideas and how these shaped the key themes of his
work. Crucially the book introduces the major thinkers and events
that proved influential in the development of Kierkegaard's work,
including Schelling, Pascal and his early education in theology.
This is the ideal introduction for anyone coming to the work of
this hugely important thinker for the first time. Continuum's
"Starting With..." series offers clear, concise and accessible
introductions to the key thinkers in philosophy. The books explore
and illuminate the roots of each philosopher's work and ideas,
leading readers to a thorough understanding of the key influences
and philosophical foundations from which his or her thought
developed. Ideal for first-year students starting out in
philosophy, the series will serve as the ideal companion to study
of this fascinating subject.
