The Abased Christ is the first monograph to be devoted exclusively
to Soren Kierkegaard's Christological masterpiece, Practice in
Christianity. Alongside an argument for a new translation of the
work's title, it offers detailed textual commentary on a series of
themes in Practice in Christianity, such as the person of Christ,
contemporaneity, imitation, and Kierkegaard's philosophy of
history. Anti-Climacus, the pseudonymous author of Practice in
Christianity, presents to his readers a uniquely challenging
understanding of who Christ is and what it means to follow him. The
Christ of Anti-Climacus is not the glorious Christ who abides with
the Father in heaven, but the abased Christ who is poor, marginal,
offensive, and persecuted. Throughout Practice in Christianity, we
are called not only to perceive the abased Christ, but to follow
after him. The Abased Christ aims to enrich historical theologians'
appreciation of Kierkegaard's Christology. However, it concludes by
grappling with questions of power, agency, and sacrifice which have
been at the forefront of contemporary theology in the 20th and 21st
centuries, thereby suggesting how we might make sense of
Kierkegaard's Christology today.
