The Book on Adler

Mehr zum Buch

The exploration of authority takes center stage in this work, prompted by a Danish pastor's claim of a divine revelation. Kierkegaard's fascination with Adolph P. Adler evolves over eight years of manuscript revisions, ultimately leading to a broader philosophical inquiry. Although he published part of the manuscript during his lifetime, the complete version remained unpublished until now. This edition presents the full text along with earlier drafts and selections of Adler's writings, offering a comprehensive view of Kierkegaard's thoughts on genius and apostolic authority.
