Críticas:

"John Lippitt manages to capture the brightness and excitement of Kierkegaard's remarkable work while explicating its themes with depth and insight. On every page one find eye-opening clues and interpretations. This little book is a treasure." -Charles Guignon, University of South Florida "This is an excellent and much-needed commentary on what is possibly Kierkegaard's most widely-read work. It is an engaging and accessible introduction to a highly complex text, and steers an expert course between the crudity of certain 'literal' readings and the excesses of some postmodern accounts." -Anthony Rudd, St Olaf College "'John Lippitt manages to capture the brightness and excitement of Kierkegaard's remarkable work while explicating its themes with depth and insight. On every page." "one finds eye-opening clues and interpretations. This little book is a treasure.' South Floridaignon, University of clearly-written and thorough introduction to this fascinating but difficult text, which brings out the full range of its implications for moral philosophy and the philosophy of religion." -Stephen Mulhall, Oxford University

Reseña del editor:
