Publisher's Synopsis

Kierkegaard was both a brilliant writer and perceptive theologian. Introducing a literary approach to Kierkegaard's theological writings, this book explores literary perspectives frequently overlooked by theological studies, and theological and philosophical underpinnings and interpretations which have been allowed only a cursory glance in literary studies on Kierkegaard. Tim Rose's combined insights from literary theory and philosophy open up the riches of Kierkegaard's theology to the full. - - Exploring a wide range of Kierkegaard's writings and his contribution to three key areas: theology of revelation, Christology, and the rationality of religious faith, this book offers a new perspective on key themes in Kierkegaard's religious thought, pointing to Christian theology as an enterprise of 'faith seeking understanding' as the believer, through grace, struggles to understand the difficulties of personal revelation that runs counter to the world's expectations. -
