This is a deeper and more interesting (and a bit longer) introduction to Kierkegaard than the corresponding entry in the 90 Minutes series. Søren Kierkegard, një nga mendimtarët më origjinalë të shekullit të XIX shkroi intensivisht mbi temat që lidheshin kryesisht me fenë, psikologjinë dhe letërsinë. Ky libër tregon se si Kierkegard i lëvroi idetë dhe pikëpamjet e tij në kundërrjedhë me opinionet dhe qëndrimet sunduese të kohës. Në këtë libër, Patrick Gardiner-i përshkruan reagimin e Kierkegardit ndaj teorive etike dhe fetare të Kantit dhe Hegelit, duke treguar në të njëjtën kohë se si qëndrimi i tij binte ndesh me doktrinat e lëvruara nga Fojerbahu dhe Marksi. Diagnostikimi i hollësishëm që Kierkegardi i bën gjendjes në të cilën ndodhet natyra njerëzore, e cila përmblidhet në kuptimin e thellë që përmban zgjedhja individuale, është padyshim teoria që krijoi ndikimin më të thellë në zhvillimet filozofike të mëvonshme, sidomos rrymës së ekzistencializmit. Sakaq, Patrick Gardiner-i qëmton në mënyrë kritike konceptin dhe qëndrimin paradoksal që Kierkegardi kish në lidhje me fenë. Kjo hyrje dritëhedhëse përfundon me ndikimin që Kierkegardi la në mendimin filozofik bashkëkohor. (book #9 in the 2004 book challenge) First, I have to give the fine folks at the Oxford University Press mad props for truth in advertising. This book is indeed about Kierkegaard, an introduction, and very short. I picked this up because I felt rather ignorant after reading Sophie's World. I would say it provided a very decent overview for someone who was looking to get the most basic grasp on the general thrust of Kierkegaard's work. It also has a very mod little cover, I felt like I should wear a black turtleneck to read it. Grade: Well, it's A- in my book, but can you really grade A Very Short Introduction? It just, well, is. Recommended: to people looking for A Very Short Introduction to Kierkegaard. no reviews | add a review

"This book shows how Kierkegaard developed his views in emphatic opposition to prevailing opinions. It describes his reaction to the ethical and religious theories of Kant and Hegel, and it also contrasts his position with doctrines advanced by thinkers like Feuerbach and Marx. Kierkegaard's seminal diagnosis of the human condition, which emphasizes the significance of individual choice, has arguably been his most striking legacy, particularly for the growth of existentialism. Both that and his arresting but paradoxical conception of religious belief are critically discussed, and Patrick Gardiner concludes this lucid introduction by showing how Kierkegaard has influenced contemporary thought."--Jacket.
