"Three Discourses on Imagined Occasions" was the last of seven
works signed by Kierkegaard and published simultaneously with an
anonymously authored companion piece. "Imagined Occasions" both
complements and stands in contrast to Kierkegaard's pseudonymously
published "Stages on Life's Way."
The two volumes not only have a chronological relation but
treat some of the same distinct themes. The first of the three
discourses, "On the Occasion of a Confession," centers on
stillness, wonder, and one's search for God--in contrast to the
speechmaking on erotic love in "In Vino Veritas," part one of
"Stages." The second discourse, "On the Occasion of a Wedding,"
complements the second part of "Stages," in which Judge William
delivers a panegyric on marriage. The third discourse, "At a
Graveside," sharpens the ethical and religious earnestness implicit
in Stages's "'Guilty'/'Not Guilty'" and completes this
collection.
