Kierkegaard’s Reception of Hamann: Language, Selfhood and Reflection Steven David Martz Ph.D. The University of Edinburgh 2012 Declaration I composed this thesis, the work is my own. No part of this thesis has been submitted for any other degree or qualification. Name……………………………….. Date……………………………………… To Yvä, Leah and Jona Your love and grace have sustained me. Abstract This thesis investigates Søren Kierkegaard’s (1813-1855) reception of the writings of Johann Georg Hamann (1730-1788). I focus on four specific topics. In chapter one I examine Kierkegaard’s early reception of Hamann which I argue provides the basis for Kierkegaard’s conception of his own authorial task. In particular, I examine concepts of humour and systematicity and the centrality of the figure of Socrates.

  • Religion in Philosophy and Theology
    Religion in Philosophy and Theology Edited by Helen De Cruz, Asle Eikrem, Thomas Rentsch, Hartmut von Sass, Heiko Schulz und Judith Wolfe Religions are core phenomena of human life. In order to understand, evaluate and adjudicate between them, it is not sucient to be aware of 'the facts'; it is necessary to place these facts within the context of what seems possible and plausible, to shed a critical light on the self-conception of religious realities and to explore their relationships to other forms of (dealing with) reality. This is done in a wide array of disciplines whose thematic perspectives, methods and overall objectives vary. Among these, philosophy of religion and theology are underrepresented but vital voices within international research. The main purpose of the series Religion in Philosophy and Theology (RPT) is to provide a forum for testing dierent approaches within these two disciplines, and to explore both their individual and combined theoretical potential, without giving preference to specic theological or philosophical approaches or advocating certain religious or anti-religious viewpoints. In doing so, it provides the opportunity to discuss and assess the pros and cons of widely diering religious, philosophical and theological perspectives, situated within multiple religious traditions within a globalized world. Among the essential requirements for publication in the series are clarity of presentation, rigor of argument, and the willingness to subject one's own ideas and concepts to the criticism of others. RPT publishes relevant specialized monographs, outstanding habilitations and dissertations as well as collected volumes. The series is overseen by an international editorial board of philosophers and theologians.
