It concludes the first and richest phase of Kierkegaard's pseudonymous authorship and is the text that philosophers look to first when attempting to define Kierkegaard's own philosophy. Familiar Kierkegaardian themes are introduced in the work, including truth as subjectivity, indirect communication, the leap, and the impossibility of forming a philosophical system for human existence. The Postscript sums up the aims of the preceding pseudonymous works and opens the way to the next part of Kierkegaard's increasingly tempestuous life: it can thus be seen as a cornerstone of his philosophical thought. This volume offers the work in a new and accessible translation by Alastair Hannay, together with an introduction that sets the work in its philosophical and historical contexts.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e Chronology\u003cbr\u003e Further reading\u003cbr\u003e Note on the translation\u003cbr\u003e Concluding Unscientific Postscript to the Philosophical Crumbs\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: History of ideas [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on History of ideas\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22History%20of%20ideas%20%5BJFCX%5D%22\"\u003eJFCX\u003c\/a\u003e], Philosophy of religion [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Philosophy of religion\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Philosophy%20of%20religion%20%5BHRAB%5D%22\"\u003eHRAB\u003c\/a\u003e], Religion: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Religion: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Religion:%20general%20%5BHRA%5D%22\"\u003eHRA\u003c\/a\u003e], Phenomenology \u0026amp; Existentialism [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Phenomenology \u0026amp; Existentialism\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Phenomenology%20\u0026amp;%20Existentialism%20%5BHPCF3%5D%22\"\u003eHPCF3\u003c\/a\u003e], Western philosophy: c 1600 to c 1900 [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Western philosophy: c 1600 to c 1900\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Western%20philosophy:%20c%201600%20to%20c%201900%20%5BHPCD%5D%22\"\u003eHPCD\u003c\/a\u003e], History of Western philosophy [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on History of Western philosophy\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22History%20of%20Western%20philosophy%20%5BHPC%5D%22\"\u003eHPC\u003c\/a\u003e], Philosophy [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Philosophy\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Philosophy%20%5BHP%5D%22\"\u003eHP\u003c\/a\u003e], Literature \u0026amp; literary studies [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literature \u0026amp; literary studies\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literature%20\u0026amp;%20literary%20studies%20%5BD%5D%22\"\u003eD\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46000832020760,"sku":"9780521709101","price":37.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521709101i_ea1277b7-2b17-4c8e-81a8-b5631b977cdd.jpg?v=1691380254","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/kierkegaard-concluding-unscientific-postscript-paperback-9780521709101","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
