Widely known as the father of existentialism, Søren Kierkegaard approached the Christian faith as a calling worthy of a person’s entire life: Christian identity is something to be continuously chosen and authentically lived into, not passively assumed within Christendom. This seminar will be a politically-inflected introduction to Kierkegaard’s thought, as we examine selections of Kierkegaard’s playful writings. We will ask how his stringent critiques of cultural Christianity in nineteenth-century Denmark apply today. Particularly relevant will be Kierkegaard’s insight into the effects that crowds and modern communication have on selfhood.
