It is often claimed that relativism, subjectivism, and nihilism are typically modern philosophical problems that arise with the breakdown of traditional values, customs, and ways of life.
The result is the absence of meaning, the fall of religious faith and the feeling of alienation so widespread in modernity.
The Danish thinker Søren Kierkegaard (1813-55) made one of the most penetrating analyzes of this complex phenomenon of modernity.
But surprisingly, he does not look to any modern thinker for an understanding of it, but rather to an ancient one, the Greek philosopher Socrates.
In this course created by former Søren Kierkegaard Research Center Associate Professor Jon Stewart, we will explore how Kierkegaard addresses issues associated with relativism, meaninglessness, and the undermining of religious faith that are typical of modern life.
His penetrating analyzes remain highly relevant today and have been seen as insightful by leading figures in existentialism, poststructuralism, and postmodernism.
