- Includes full footnotes, an up-to-date bibliography, and an essay placing Kierkegaard within the context of his time.
Philosopher, theologian, and poet, Søren Kierkegaard (1813-1855) is one of the most influential and original writers of the modern era. His ideas shaped those of countless later figures, including Albert Camus, Paul Tillich, and Jacques Derrida. Kierkegaard presents his profound ideas about love, faith and God in a sinuous prose style that is laced with humor and warmth. He remains as provocative, stimulating, and genuinely fun to read as he was during his own time. First published under the pseudonym Johannes Climacus, Philosophical Fragments is one of his greatest works. By turns teasing, tortured, and brilliantly insightful, it investigates what Truth means, for a Christian and for a human being – a question that has lost none of its relevance today.
Lexicos Books is proud to present this authoritative English translation of this masterpiece, originally published by Princeton University Press, meticulously edited and formatted for Kindle.
“The greatest Christian thinker of modern time.”
Emil Brunner
“One of the most important, if not the most important, figure in the philosophy and theology of our time.”
Paul Roubiczek
“One of the first ‘modern’ thinkers - the first who made a decisive break with a long-established philosophical tradition in order to portray the human condition in the light of hitherto unsuspected or neglected existential possibilities.”
