Item Description...
Ostensibly, "A Literary Review" is a straightforward commentary by Søren Kierkegaard on the work of a contemporary novelist. On deeper levels, however, it becomes the existential philosopher's far-reaching critique of his society and age, and its apocalyptic final sections inspired the central ideas in Martin Heiddeger's influential work "Being and Time." Embraced by many readers as prophetic, "A Literary Review" and its concepts remain relevant to our current debates on identity, addiction, and social conformity. |

 | A view of literature, society, and personhood. Nov 28, 2004 |
I'm possibly not the most qualified person to review this, but since there are no other reviews, I'll just give a quick endorsement. This volume is the same that is published by Princeton as 'The Two Ages', and the final chapter has been published seperately as 'The Present Age'.
The first half gives some interesting views of literature and psychology. The second half is the most remarkable part, where SK declares 'the present age' and the future as a time when the age of heros and authority has passed, when no one can communicate truth to others directly, and each and every individual is faced with a choice of being a zero stuck in endless reflection, or passionately working out his own salvation, to only be obtained at first-hand from God.
Concise and worthwhile. | | | Write your own review about A Literary Review (Penguin Classics)
