Riassunto

A bold psychological portrait of Kierkegaard that connects his life to his ideas.

This nonfiction study uses psychoanalytic insights to illuminate how the thinker’s family ties, personal relationships, and inner conflicts shaped his philosophy. It traces a path from a dominant father-imago and early turmoil to the development of a distinctive, sometimes controversial, existential voice.

The book blends biography with interpretation, showing how events like Kierkegaard’s engagement and its end, along with later self-reflection, fed his quest to “move beyond” ordinary life. It grounds its analysis in repeated motifs—father figures, love and loss, and the tension between life and death—that recur in his writings and in the era’s cultural mood.

- Learn how the father figure and family dynamics are read as engines for Kierkegaard’s thought.
- See how romantic ties and their outcome intersect with philosophical developments and religious questions.
- Explore terms like Eros, imago, sublimation, and the death instinct as they relate to his work.
- Consider how a psychoanalytic lens can illuminate the creativity and conflicts of a key modern thinker.

Ideal for readers of philosophy, psychology, and scholars seeking a different lens on Kierkegaard’s life and ideas.
