Episode 28 - Soren Kierkegaard

from Dharma Roads · host John Danvers

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 21 I talked about existentialism and mentioned that while Jean Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir and other existentialist thinkers were agnostics or atheists, there were a number of influential Christian philosophers who developed forms of existential thinking. The earliest of these was the Danish theologian, Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855), who lived in Copenhagen for most of his life. In this episode I share a few thoughts about Kierkegaard's ideas and life. Please keep in mind that what follows is my personal view of just a few strands of Kierkegaard’s many-stranded thought. I hope you will find it to be interesting and useful - if it is, I encourage you to read some of Kierkegaard's many writings.
