I enjoyed this artistic biography of Denmark‘s most famous philosopher. Simon Vance‘s narration is particularly engaging. S.K. was a prolific writer about everything but focused on theology and individualism. He was also a weird, sad guy who probably wouldn‘t have written anything if therapy was widely available in the 1840s. Kierkegaard‘s hair style is 5 stars though! 🤩
An ever relevant essay. Highly recommend to any fellow pessimist who has a distaste for Hegel.
