Description

Contains the last of seven works signed by the author. This book covers three of his discourses - 'On the Occasion of a Confession', 'On the Occasion of a Wedding' and 'At a Graveside'. 'On the Occasion of a Confession' centers on stillness, wonder, and one's search for God - in contrast to the speechmaking on erotic love in 'In Vino Veritas'.

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
