{"product_id":"kierkegaards-writings-iv-part-ii","title":"Kierkegaard's Writings IV, Part II","description":"\u003cp\u003eSøren Kierkegaard, the nineteenth-century Danish philosopher rediscovered in the twentieth century, is a major influence in contemporary philosophy, religion, and literature. He regarded \u003ci\u003eEither\/Or\u003c\/i\u003e as the beginning of his authorship, although he had published two earlier works on Hans Christian Andersen and irony. The pseudonymous volumes of \u003ci\u003eEither\/Or\u003c\/i\u003e are the writings of a young man (I) and of Judge William (II). The ironical young man's papers include a collection of sardonic aphorisms; essays on Mozart, modern drama, and boredom; and \"The Seducer's Diary.\" The seeming miscellany is a reflective presentation of aspects of the \"either,\" the esthetic view of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Part II is an older friend's \"or,\" the ethical life of integrated, authentic personhood, elaborated in discussions of personal becoming and of marriage. The resolution of the \"either\/or\" is left to the reader, for there is no Part III until the appearance of \u003ci\u003eStages on Life's Way\u003c\/i\u003e. The poetic-reflective creations of a master stylist and imaginative impersonator, the two men write in distinctive ways appropriate to their respective positions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52641286717807,"sku":"9780691020426","price":378.81,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/0691020426.jpg?v=1770411383","url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/products\/kierkegaards-writings-iv-part-ii","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
