ISBN-13: 978-1-4411-3399-1, ISBN: 1-4411-3399-2

"The history of Continental philosophy is often conceived as being represented by two major schools: German idealism and phenomenology/existentialism. These two schools are frequently juxtaposed so as to highlight their purported radical differences. There is a commonly held view that an abrupt break occurred in the nineteenth century, resulting in a disdainful rejection of idealism in all its forms. This break is often located in the tr ..."

Kierkegaard has been traditionally characterized as a Christian writer who placed supreme importance on the inward religious life of each individual believer. His radical v ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-4094-2641-7, ISBN: 1-4094-2641-6

"There can be no doubt that most of the thinkers who are usually associated with the existentialist tradition, whatever their actual doctrines, were in one way or another influenced by the writings of Kierkegaard. This influence is so great that it can be fairly stated that the existentialist movement was largely responsible for the major advance in Kierkegaard's international reception that took place in the twentieth century. In Kierke ..."

"He planned to write the dissertation as soon as he had finished his Homer translations, but the following year, in another letter to his father, dated July 1, 1824 (Borup, Letter no. 56), he mentions the possibility of skipping over it: "I have myself often thought of skipping over the master's dissertation (not for the sake of indolence [Magelighed] but for the sake of my finances)."
