Kurzbeschreibung
This indispensable guide to the search for kinship with God was written by the great nineteenth-century Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard (1813-1855), whose writings set the stage for existentialism and continue to exert a lasting influence on believers and nonbelievers alike.
Kierkegaard struck out against all forms of established order–including the established church–that work to make men complacent with themselves and thereby obscure their personal responsibility to encounter God. He considered Training in Christianity his most important book. It represented his effort to replace what he believed had become "an amiable, sentimental paganism" with authentic Christianity. Kierkegaard's challenge to live out the implications of Christianity in the most personal decisions of life will greatly appeal to readers today who are trying to develop their personal integrity in accordance with the truths of revealed religion.

Über den Autor
SØREN KIERKEGAARD was born in Copenhagen in 1813. He studied theology, but abandoned the idea of becoming a pastor as his disillusionment with the Lutheran church grew. For the next ten years he lived in seclusion and wrote ten books and a dozen major philosophical essays. He attacked Hegelianism because he believed Hegel's systematizing and his fusion of logic with existence was false. In contrast, Kierkegaard held that one's relation in faith to the objective uncertainty of Christianity was the highest truth attainable. His concept of the self is that of a synthesis of the infinite and the finite, the temporal and the eternal, tensions that can only find rest in God. Kierkegaard has strongly influenced--and continues to influence--numerous 20th-century thinkers, in particular Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Karl Barth. Kierkegaard died in 1855.

5 Stars for Kiekegaard - 3 Stars for this edition
20. Juli 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
Rather than summarizing Kierkegaard's (or should I say, Anti-Climacus') major concepts, I'd like to comment strictly on this particular edition. I am disappointed with Walter Lowrie's translation here - it feels cumbersome and doesn't read as well as it should. While he provides some insightful editorial comments, this is an overall weak effort.
I would highly recommend choosing the Princeton edition translated by the two preeminent Kierkegaard scholars, Howard and Edna Hong. That IS the definitive edition. You'll notice even the title is translated differently as "Practice in Christianity". Seeing as their edition preceded the Lowrie translation, I wonder who even thought a new translation was necessary! I suppose there is a fairly high demand for Kierkegaard's main works in cheap paperback editions, but if you're going to go to the trouble to understand his profound philosophy, you might as well do it the right way with the definitive edition.
It's a bit more expensive, but in addition to a superior and much more readable translation, you get over one hundred pages of supplementary material including, most notably, entries from Kierkegaard's journals and papers pertaining to this work. Don't waste your time on a second-rate edition. Get the real thing.

Training in Christianity
6. April 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
This is rather deep most of the time, but this is when we can learn new things which this book helps us do. It gives new insights into serving and living for Christ.

Sheer Poetry, and Honesty...
8. Januar 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
Read this book. Get this book if you can find it. You'll never hear a conservative "Christian" as an honest spokesman for "morality" and "Christianity" ever again.
