Spiritual writings : gift, creation, love : selections from The upbuilding discourses
In this new collection, Oxford theologian George Pattison translates and selects Sren Kierkegaard's previously neglected writings on spirituality'works that greatly deepen our understanding of the influential thinker. In philosophy and literature, Kierkegaard ("By far the most profound thinker of the nineteenth century"'Ludwig Wittgenstein) is generally perceived as epitomizing existential angst. However, there is much moreto Kierkegaard than the popular image of the "melancholy Dane" or the iconoclastic critic of established Christendom. Alongside the pseudonymous books for which he is largely known, Kierkegaard also wrote many devotional works, which he called "upbuilding" or "edifying" discourses. Taken as a whole, these writings offer something very different from the popular view'they embody a spirituality grounded in a firm sense of human life as a divine gift.
