Kierkegaard, Communication, and Virtue : Authorship as Edification Hardback

Hardback

Description

In contrast to recent postmodern and deconstructionist readings, Mark A.

Tietjen believes that the purpose behind Kierkegaard's writings is the moral and religious improvement of the reader.

Tietjen defends Kierkegaard against claims that certain features of his works, such as pseudonymity, indirect communication, irony, and satire are self-deceived or deceitful.

Kierkegaard, Communication, and Virtue reveals how they are directly related to the virtues or moral issues being discussed.

In fact, Tietjen argues, the manner of presentation is a critical element of the philosophical message being conveyed.

Reading broadly in Kierkegaard's writings, he develops a hermeneutics of trust that fully illustrates Kierkegaard's aim to evoke faith in his reader.
