Soren Kierkegaard: Subjectivity, Irony, & the Crisis of Modernity

The book takes as its starting point the statement made by Kierkegaard towards the end of his life in which he claimed the model for his work had always been Socrates, and traces this influence on Kierkegaard's development as philosopher and religious thinker with a particular focus on the early text The Concept of Irony.
