About this ebook
For over a century, the Danish thinker Søren Kierkegaard (1813-55) has been at the center of a number of important discussions, concerning not only philosophy and theology, but also, more recently, fields such as social thought, psychology, and contemporary aesthetics, especially literary theory.
Despite his relatively short life, Kierkegaard was an extraordinarily prolific writer, as attested to by the 26-volume Princeton University Press edition of all of his published writings. But Kierkegaard left behind nearly as much unpublished writing, most of which consists of what are called his "journals and notebooks." Kierkegaard has long been recognized as one of history's great journal keepers, but only rather small portions of his journals and notebooks are what we usually understand by the term "diaries." By far the greater part of Kierkegaard's journals and notebooks consists of reflections on a myriad of subjects--philosophical, religious, political, personal. Studying his journals and notebooks takes us into his workshop, where we can see his entire universe of thought. We can witness the genesis of his published works, to be sure--but we can also see whole galaxies of concepts, new insights, and fragments, large and small, of partially (or almost entirely) completed but unpublished works. Kierkegaard's Journals and Notebooks enables us to see the thinker in dialogue with his times and with himself.
Volume 4 of this 11-volume series includes the first five of Kierkegaard's well-known "NB" journals, which contain, in addition to a great many reflections on his own life, a wealth of thoughts on theological matters, as well as on Kierkegaard's times, including political developments and the daily press.
Kierkegaard wrote his journals in a two-column format, one for his initial entries and the second for the extensive marginal comments that he added later. This edition of the journals reproduces this format, includes several photographs of original manuscript pages, and contains extensive scholarly commentary on the various entries and on the history of the manuscripts being reproduced.
Søren Kierkegaard
Nace en 1813 y fallece en 1854. Figura entre los grandes de la historia del pensamiento. Su personalidad y su obra han sido calificadas de «tumultuosas, desbordantes e incontenibles». Conviven en él una radical vanguardia en cuanto a los temas (valoración del individuo, crítica de la sociedad de su tiempo, angustia existencial, radicalidad de la culpa, sentimiento de soledad y abandono) y al estilo (cuestión de los pseudónimos, disolución de los géneros clásicos, diálogo entre literatura, filosofía y religión) con una vuelta al cristianismo originario, la reivindicación del patronazgo moral del socratismo platónico o la universalidad de la herencia clásica. Arrinconado al principio por su enfrentamiento con el cristianismo establecido de su época, fue rescatado por G. Brandes, T. S. Haecker y M. Heidegger. A España llegó tempranamente a través de Høffding y Unamuno, que le llamaba «el hermano Kierkegaard». Recientemente se ha recuperado el interés por su magnífica obra y su inquietante personalidad, fruto del cual son los numerosos estudios en torno a su pensamiento y la publicación de una nueva edición de sus escritos. En el marco de la edición castellana de los Escritos de Søren Kierkegaard, basada en la edición crítica danesa, han sido ya publicados: Escritos 1. De los papeles de alguien que todavía vive. Sobre el concepto de ironía (2.ª edición, 2006); Escritos 2. O lo uno o lo otro. Un fragmento de vida I (2006); Escritos 3. O lo uno o lo otro. Un fragmento de vida II (2007); Escritos 5. Discursos edificantes. Tres discursos para ocasiones supuestas (2010) y Migajas filosóficas o un poco de filosofía (5.ª edición, 2007). De Kierkegaard han sido también publicados en esta misma Editorial: Los lirios del campo y las aves del cielo (2007), La enfermedad mortal (2008), Ejercitación del cristianismo (2009), Para un examen de sí mismo recomendado a este tiempo (2011), El Instante (2.ª edición, 2012) y La época presente (2012), Apuntes sobre la Filosofía de la Revelación de F. W. J. Schelling (1841-1842)(2014), El libro sobre Adler. Un ciclo de ensayos ético-religiosos (2021) y Escritos 6. Etapas en el camino de la vida (2023).
