thats funny. yeah i guess kierkegaard can be like that- wordy and really abstract.

i still enjoy his writing though, even though i don't get all of it. the parts i get- i really get and enjoy

actually, according to Hubert Dreyfus, to think of the opening of Sickness Unto Death as a parody of Hegel is a horrible misunderstanding of what Kierkegaard is trying to say and do. (listen to his lecture on itunesU, under UC Berkeley, Philosophy, Philosophy 7: Existentialism in Literature, Spring 2006, "Sickness Unto Death" pt.1. Its for free, and a good listen)

Sorry Gaurinathan, i'm a danish scholar. I do know what i'm talking about. Ever read a complete book of Kierkegaard? In danish?

@pastorniels what a load of rubbish! hahahaha... Put the care he put into every single word and sound into one day of yours and you'll have one of the greatest days of your life.

@sweetsouce Actually pretty much everything Kierkegaard ever said was in dispute to Hegel. Kierkegaard could be quite ironic, so he could very well be making fun of Hegel. Secondly, Kierkegaard puplished his own works. Hence the occasional lack of editing. Sometimes he just babels on, simply because there was no editor to make him edit his works. Therefore it is important to realise that not every chapter in a Kierkegaard book is the deepest insight.
