Description
After deciding to terminate his authorship with the pseudonymous "Concluding Unscientific Postscript", Kierkegaard composed reviews as a means of writing without being an author. This work comments on the Danish novel "Two Ages", which contrasts the mentality of the age of the French Revolution with that of the subsequent epoch of rationalism.
Author Biography
Howard V. Hong, the former Director of the Howard and Edna Hong Kierkegaard Library at St. Olaf College, is the General Editor of "Kierkegaard's Writings". Edna H. Hong (1913-2007) was a poet, writer, and translator who has collaborated with Professor Hong on other English translations of Kierkegaard's work.
Reviews"These new translations are excellent."--Choice "The definitive edition of the Writings. The first volume ... indicates the scholarly value of the entire series: an introduction setting the work in the context of Kierkegaard's development; a remarkably clear translation; and concluding sections of intelligent notes."--Library Journal
