Download or read book Without Authority written by Søren Kierkegaard and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-25 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Without authority," a phrase Kierkegaard repeatedly applied to himself and his writings, is an appropriate title for this volume of five short works that in various ways deal with the concept and practice of authority. The Lily in the Field and the Bird of the Air contemplates the teaching authority of these creatures based on three different passages in the Gospels. The first of Two Ethical-Religious Essays mediates on the ethics of Jesus' martyrdom; the second contrasts the authority of the genius with that of the apostle. The remaining works--Three Discourses at the Communion on Fridays (1849), An Upbuilding Discourse (1850), and Two Discourses at the Communion on Fridays (1851)--are meditations on sin, forgiveness, and the power of love.

Download or read book Kierkegaard s Writings IX Volume 9 written by Søren Kierkegaard and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-21 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prefaces was the last of four books by Søren Kierkegaard to appear within two weeks in June 1844. Three Upbuilding Discourses and Philosophical Fragments were published first, followed by The Concept of Anxiety and its companion--published on the same day--the comically ironic Prefaces. Presented as a set of prefaces without a book to follow, this work is a satire on literary life in nineteenth-century Copenhagen, a lampoon of Danish Hegelianism, and a prefiguring of Kierkegaard's final collision with Danish Christendom. Shortly after publishing Prefaces, Kierkegaard began to prepare Writing Sampler as a sequel. Writing Sampler considers the same themes taken up in Prefaces but in yet a more ironical and satirical vein. Although Writing Sampler remained unpublished during his lifetime, it is presented here as Kierkegaard originally envisioned it, in the company of Prefaces.

Download or read book Kierkegaard s Writings XXV Volume 25 written by Søren Kierkegaard and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-25 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides the first English translation of all the known correspondence to and from Søren Kierkegaard, including a number of his letters in draft form and papers pertaining to his life and death. These fascinating documents offer new access to the character and lifework of the gifted philosopher, theologian, and psychologist. Kierkegaard speaks often and openly about his desire to correspond, and the resulting desire to write for a greater audience. He consciously recognizes letter-writing as an opportunity to practice composition. Unlike most correspondence, Kierkegaard's letters expressly "do not require a reply"--he insists on this as a principle, while he clearly and earnestly yearns for a response to his efforts. Among his other principles are purposefulness, directness, and the equality of a letter to a visit with a friend (Kierkegaard preferred the former to the latter). Perhaps more than anything else in print, Kierkegaard's Letters and Documents reveal his love affair with the written word.

Thorvaldsen had come back to his native country with the intention of ending his career in Denmark; but, on leaving Rome, he had promised himself that he would return once more, were it only to make a brief stay, to the city where the most important period of his life had been passed. Some unfinished works, were awaiting him in his old atelier, around which clustered the memories of forty-two years of his prolific artistic life. Only an opportunity was needed to decide him to undertake the journey; and this the sculptor found when the Baron von Stampe announced his intention of going to Italy THE ANGEL OP BAPTISM. with his family. The friends resolved to travel in company across the continent; Thorvaldsen wishing to see again those of his works which now ornamented the public squares of some of the larger cities of Germany. They set out the 21st of May, 1841. The extraordinary festivities occasioned by the artist's return to his country find a natural explanation in the just admiration of compatriots for a fame which flattered their national pride. The ovations following one upon another during the whole journey of the Danish sculptor through Germany present a spectacle which to-day may appear strange 1 In Berlin, the royal family invited Thorvaldsen to pass the evening at the Chateau Schonhausen (May 30,1841). A fewdays later (June 3), the artists of that city gave him a grand banquet at Jagor's restaurant, when, to...
