Klappentext Jon Stewart's groundbreaking study is a major re-evaluation of the complex relationship between the philosophies of Kierkegaard and Hegel. Although the standard view on the subject is that Kierkegaard defined himself as explicitly anti-Hegelian (and viewed Hegel's philosophy with disdain)! Jon Stewart demonstrates that Kierkegaard's criticism was not directed specifically to Hegel! but actually to some contemporary Danish Hegelians. Zusammenfassung Jon Stewart's study is a major re-evaluation of the complex relations between the philosophies of Kierkegaard and Hegel. Scholars working in the tradition of Continental philosophy will find this an insightful and provocative book. It will also appeal to scholars in religious studies and the history of ideas.
