No thinker has reflected more deeply on the role of religion in
human life than Soren Kierkegaard, who produced in little more than
a decade an astonishing number of works devoted to an analysis of
the kind of personality, character, and spiritual qualities needed
to become an authentic human being or self. Understanding religion
to consist essentially as an inward, passionate, personal relation
to God or the eternal, Kierkegaard depicts the art of living
religiously as a self through the creation of a kaleidoscope of
poetic figures who exemplify the constituents of selfhood or the
lack thereof. The present study seeks to bring Kierkegaard into
conversation with contemporary empirical psychology and virtue
ethics, highlighting spiritual dimensions of human existence in his
thought that are inaccessible to empirical measurement, as well as
challenging on religious grounds the claim that he is a virtue
ethicist in continuity with the classical and medieval virtue
tradition.
