In a short and unhappy life, he wrote many books and articles on literary, satirical, religious and psychological themes, but the diversity and idiosyncratic style of his writing have contributed to a misunderstanding of his ideas. In this book--the only introduction to the full range of Kierkegaard's thought--Patrick Gardiner demonstrates how Kierkegaard developed his ideas and examines his thoughts in light of the doctrines on society developed by his contemporaries Marx and Feuerbach. Finally, he assesses the profound importance of Kierkegaard's ideas on the development of modern ways of thinking.Book Title:KierkegaardFormat:Trade PaperbackDewey Edition:21gtin13:9780192876423Publication Year:1988LCCN:88-004698Item Width:5.1 inGenre:PhilosophyItem Weight:3.5 OzAuthor:Patrick GardinerLC Classification Number:B4377.G37 1988Topic:Individual Philosophers, History & Surveys / ModernItem Length:7.7 inISBN-10:0192876422ISBN-13:9780192876423Number of Pages:128 Pages
