作者: David J. Kangas (Author)

Book Description
In Kierkegaard's Instant, David J. Kangas reads Kierkegaard to reveal his radical thinking about temporality. For Kierkegaard, the instant of becoming, in which everything changes in the blink of an eye, eludes recollection and anticipation. It constitutes a beginning always already at work. As Kangas shows, Kierkegaard's retrieval of the sudden quality of temporality allows him to stage a deep critique of the idealist projects of Fichte, Schelling, and Hegel. By linking Kierkegaard's thought to the tradition of Meister Eckhart, Kangas formulates the central problem of these early texts and puts them into contemporary light--can thinking hold itself open to the challenges of temporality?
Review
"Kangas's theoretical contribution, and his careful locating of Kierkegaard in historial context, allows him to bring even the most enigmatic of Kierkegaardian texts to life." -- Vanessa Rumble, Boston College
