Ethics and Philosophy of Soren Kierkegaard
Brief characteristics
Soren Kierkegaard's philosophical legacy and its interpretation in the context of 19th century philosophy and interpretations of current thinking. Overlaps of Kierkegaard's existentialism with philosophy, ethics and theology are dominant areas of our research, while our team members examine possible alternative interpretations in the contemporary European and non-European context.
