Kierkegaard AnthologyThis anthology covers the whole of Kierkegaard's literary career. The selections range from the terse epigrams of the Journal through the famous "Diary of the Seducer" and the "Banquet" scene, in which Søren Kierkegaard reveals his great lyric and dramatic gifts, on to the philosophical and psychological works of his maturity. These are climaxed by the beautiful and moving religious discourses which accompany them; finally, there is the biting satire of his Attack upon "Christendom." |

How beautiful, how true and how heartfelt are the words of J. Boehme where he says: in the moment of temptation the thing is not to have many thoughts, but to hold fast to one thought.” God give me strength. My relation to “her” August ...
