It was mostly written during his stay in Berlin where he took notes on Schelling's Philosophy of Revelation. It includes essays of literary and music criticism and a set of romantic-like-aphorisms as part of his larger theme of examining the reflective and philosophical structure of faith. He is widely considered to be the first existentialist philosopher. "As a thinker Kierkegaard had to wait for the twentieth century to find his audience; he is now generally considered to be however eccentric one of the most important Christian philosophers" write Carter and Muir in Printing and the Mind of Man.

1859WRCLIT24446Copenhagen: Reitzels Forlag 1859. 21141pp. Contemporary quarter calf and boards small nick at fore-edge of lower board lower joint cracked at toe otherwise a very good copy. First edition of this work of substantial import in the author's canon first written in 1848 contemporary with Kierkegaard's preparation of the second edition of ENTEN=ELLER but withheld from publication then and first issued posthumously. Its intent was to counter the suggestion that Kierkegaard as a literary artist had lapsed and turned to religion only in his later years. In this work he explains that his entire body of publications both aesthetic and religious is part of an intentional and balanced attempt to present concurrently published texts of both types simultaneously approaching the same issues from two different points of view. As such this essay is one of the most significant of Kierkegaard's analytic works. The NUC locates 5 copies. HIMMELSTRUP 292. Reitzels Forlag hardcover books

First edition of this severe attack on the official Christian Church in Denmark issued in the context of Kierkegaard's continuing publication of THE INSTANT 16 June 1855. In this brief work Kierkegaard modifies some of his earliest views such as those on marriage and demands of the true Christian an almost literal imitation of Christ requiring a renunciation of the world and sinful earthly life for a life as a true witness for Christ with consequent suffering and denial of egoism. In answer to the title query he asserts that Christ's judgment upon official state -sanctioned Christianity would be extremely harsh. HIMMELSTRUP 199. Reitzels Forlag unknown books
