Kierkegaard Studies Yearbook, 2006 - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

In light of Hans Christian Andersen's 200th birthday and the 150th anniversary of Kierkegaard's death, the main section of "Yearbook 2006" is devoted to the relationship between Andersen and Kierkegaard. Among the articles is an essay by a leading practitioner of Conceptual Art, Joseph Kosuth. The Yearbook also contains three previously unknown letters. The first, from 1857, is from Soren Kierkegaard's brother-in-law to his older brother, Peter Christian. The second letter, from 1866, is from Kierkegaard's former fiancee, Regine Schlegel, nee Olsen, to his nephew Henrik Lund. The third letter, written the day after Kierkegaard's funeral in 1855, is from theologian and politician Peter Christian Zahle. It contains new information about Kierkegaard's period of illness at Frederik's Hospital, his funeral at the Church of Our Lady, and his burial at Assistens Cemetery.
