Major works by Søren Kierkegaard - short diagram
Kierkegaard's first book, Either/Or (1843), was
an argumentative, and lovely dialog in which he looked to legitimize his break
with Regine, and in which put forward an essential fundamental of his way of
thinking: every individual must pick—intentionally and capably—among the
options life presents. Kierkegaard lined this up with other philosophical
works: Fear and Trembling (1843), Philosophical Fragments (1844), The Concept
of Dread (1844), Concluding Unscientific Postscript to the Philosophical
Fragment (1846) and Sickness unto Death.
Kierkegaard's objective was the
"framework," as he jokingly put it, of G.W.F. Hegel, the incredible
rationalist of vision. Kierkegaard assaulted Hegel's endeavor to systematize
all of the real world; Hegel, he stated, forgot about the most significant
component of human experience: presence itself. ]He ventured to such an extreme
as to contend that Hegel's vision is a "vehicle fit for obliterating the
person." Kierkegaard felt that no philosophical framework could clarify
the human condition. The experience of the real world—the passing of a friend
or family member, the sentiments of blame and fear—was what made a difference,
not the "thought" of it.
Hegel underlined universals- - Kierkegaard
contended for choice and duty. Hegel looked for a target hypothesis of
information whereupon everybody could concur; Kierkegaard had confidence in the
subjectivity of truth—implying that fact is comprehended and experienced
independently. Presence, Kierkegaard accepted, is real, agonizing, and more
significant than "embodiment" or "thought." The credible
individual grapples with major inquiries that can't be addressed objectively.
The best way to live in this excruciating
presence is through confidence. Be that as it may, to Kierkegaard, confidence
is anything but a psychological feeling about teaching, nor positive religious
emotions, yet an enthusiastic promise to God even with vulnerability.
Confidence is a hazard - the "act of pure trust"- - an experience that
requires the forswearing of oneself. To pick confidence is the thing that
brings bona fide human presence. This is the "existentialism" that
Kierkegaard is viewed as the author of—however later existentialists had
fundamentally unexpected motivation in comparison to his.
