Overview

Princeton University Press, for nearly 50 years, has lovingly translated the works of Søren Kierkegaard, the 19th century Danish theologian and philosopher, into English. While English-speaking people have had access to some of Kierkegaard’s corpus, the whole of it has been unavailable until the past few decades. Covering his theological, philosophical, and cultural observations, this series provides readers with newly discovered masterpieces in the history of Christian thought from the mind of one of Christianity’s most profound thinkers.

For the first time ever, this essential edition of the works of Kierkegaard is available in Logos Bible Software. Never before has it possible to ponder the depths of Christian existence in such an accessible format, granting readers the ability to trace Søren’s thinking as he works through the problem of faith in Fear and Trembling, examines cultural Christianity in Either/Or, or expounds upon the works of the Christian life in Training in Christianity. Thoroughly searchable and integrated with your entire Logos library, Writings is the best way to study Kierkegaard—period.

About Søren Kierkegaard

Søren Aabye Kierkegaard (5 May 1813 – 11 November 1855) was a Danish Christian philosopher, theologian and religious author. He was a critic of idealist intellectuals and philosophers of his time, such as Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling and Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel; he was also critical of the state and practice of Christianity in his lifetime, primarily that of The Church of Denmark. He is widely considered to be the first existentialist.
