Synopsis: |
Unlike most of the major figures in Western philosophy, Kierkegaard explores many issues of interest to feminist theorists today. Moreover, he does so in a style - labyrinthine, many-voiced, multilayered, adverse to authority - that adumbrates "ecriture feminine". A major question probed in the volume is whether Kierkegaard's writings are misogynist, ambivalent or essentialist in their views of woman and the feminine or whether, in some important and vital ways, they are liberatory and empowering for feminists and women trying to free themselves from the maze of patriarchal constructs. The essays also show how the three existence-spheres - aesthetic, ethical and religious - articulated in Kierkegaard's authorship inscribe different modalities of the sexual relation: seduction for the aesthetic, marriage for the ethical, and absence from commerce with the other sex for the religious. Contributors are Sylvanie Agacinski, Wanda Warren Berry, Birgit Bertung, Jane Duran, Leslie A. Howe, Celine Leon, Tamsin Lorraine, Robert L. Perkins, Mark L. Taylor, Sylvia Walsh and Julia Watkin. |
