Reviews
"The one book in which all these aspects of Kierkegaard's authorship flow together into a single work. . . . Works of Love is the central work in Kierkegaard's entire authorship . . . Be warned! Works of Love is the kind of book that can change your life." - George Pattison, Oxford University, from the "Introduction" "By far the most profound thinker of the 19th century" - Ludwig Wittgenstein "Kierkegaard's great contribution to Western philosophy was to assert, or to reassert with Romantic urgency, that, subjectively speaking, each existence is the center of the universe. He offered himself as a corrective to idealism, from Plato to Hegel." - John Updike, The New Yorker "The father of existentialism, Kierkegaard asserted the primacy of the individual in all his or her raging contradiction" - New York Times
