'Alastair Hannay has made an immense contribution to Kierkegaard
scholarship. In this volume he draws on his wide knowledge of
Kierkegaard's life, publications, and journal entries to provide a
sharp and sustained focus on the philosophical content of
Kierkegaard work. The result is a lively sense of the range and
relevance of the many-faceted thought of this absolutely essential
figure.' - Hubert Dreyfus, University of California at Berkeley
'Kierkegaard's writings are difficult territory, and Alastair
Hannay is the most reliable of guides.' - Jonathan Ree, editor of
Kierkegaard: a Critical Reader
'Alastair Hannay is certainly a reliable guide. Scholarly, without
being weighed down by his learning, his essays cover a wide range
of topics and are written in a clear and accessible style.'
