1844réf. 62263Kjøbenhavn Reitzel 1844. Small 8vo. 110 1 pp. Completely uncut in the original blue cardboard-binding. Minimal wear to capitals and hinges with a tiny tear to front upper and back hinge. Minute paper loss to capitals and minimal loss to one corner. The printed title-label preserved in its entirety. Brownspotting due to the quality of the paper.A truly magnificent copy in completely original state – almost looks like it came straight off the press. First edition of Kierkegaard's most humorous book Prefaces in the very rare original blue binding in truly magnificent state and with the printed title-label preserved in its entirety. Published simultaneously with The Concept of Anxiety Prefaces can be viewed as its companion piece. It represents an altogether different genre and is the most humorous of all of Kierkegaard’s works but the two fictional authors of the works interestingly contrast each other. Although having been eclipsed by the now notoriously famous Concept of Anxiety Prefaces was in fact more popular when it appeared and sold many more copies. Written under the pseudonym of Nicolaus Notabene the “author” name indicates that despite its humorous approach Prefaces is still something serious – something to be noted. And it certainly is. It is here that we find Kierkegaard’s sarcastic roasting of the Hegelian system and of the Danish Hegelians with Johan Ludvig Heiberg as the main representant. Through Notabene he makes fun of Heiberg and Hegel who both want to explain everything and want to be mediators of understanding. Just as Hafniensis in The Concept on Anxiety poses that “how sin came into the world each man understands solely by himself. If he would learn it from another he would misunderstand it” p. 51 so Notabene in Prefaces states that “My frame my health my entire constitution do not lend themselves to mediation” p. 45. In Prefaces we also find Kierkegaard’s thoughts about the relationship between the reading public and the author and his fierce criticism of literary critics and reviewers among these also Heiberg as well as Martensen who famously reviewed Either-Or and Repetition respectively. And in the very amusing preface to the Prefaces we are given another glimpse into Kierkegaard’s thoughts on marriage and the dilemma he found himself in with Regine – the inner struggle between he who is the husband and he who is the author; can one be both With its challenging notions on the idea of the book and the interaction of the book with its readers his little ironic masterpiece is a clear forerunner of Postmodernism. “Kierkegaard’s ‘Prefaces’ is a brief though not unimportant work. Themes he develops elsewhere at greater length here are presented with characteristic insight and wit. This richly suggestive text has never received the attention it deserves. William McDonald’s fine translation now makes it possible to assess the importance of ‘Prefaces’ for Kierkegaard’s œuvre and to appreciate its significance for philosophical literary and theological issues that are still with us.” From the review of William McDonald’s 1989 edition of Prefaces in English in the Kierkegaard and Postmodernism-series. Written under a pseudonym and without Kierkegaard’s name appearing as publisher or indeed as anything else he was unable to give away presentation-copies of the work due to his own strict set of rules for this. Thus not a single presentation copy of the work exists. A single copy of the book was in the auction catalogue of his book collection after his death. Himmelstrup 70.

1844réf. 62257Kjøbenhavn Reitzel 1844. Small 8vo. 164 pp. Completely uncut in the original printed light green wrappers with the text of the title-page repeated inside a frame to front board printed author and title to spine and the printing year within the same repeated frame to the back board. An almost untouched copy with just a tiny crease to the front wrapper and a tiny little nick to lower capital at back hinge. A bit of brownspotting due to the quality of the paper. Housed in an elegant green half morocco box with gilt lines and Gothic gilt lettering to spine. Green marbled paper boards and gilt super ex libris to front board Anker Kysters Eftf. And gilt by Hagel Olsen. A truly remarkable copy of the first edition in completely original condition in the fragile original wrappers virtually untouched. We have seen copies in the original wrappers before but never in this state. This is a truly amazing survival. In uncut state the work is a lot larger than regular copies – more than a cm taller and also significantly wider. By many Philosophical Fragments is considered Kierkegaard’s actual religious-philosophical main work. It is the first book written under the important pseudonym Johannes Climacus and it is here that Kierkegaard unfolds the tension between philosophy and religion in an attempt to find a historical onset for eternal consciousness opposing the ideological thought inherited by Plato Aristotle and Hegel. Through Climacus Kierkegaard contrasts the paradoxes of Christianity with Greek and modern philosophical thinking. He begins with Greek Platonic philosophy exploring the implications of venturing beyond the Socratic understanding of truth acquired through recollection to the Christian experience of acquiring truth through grace. It is in Philosophical Fragments that Kierkegaard’s polemic against the philosophy of Hegel becomes most obvious portraying clearly for the first time how the salvation of man can only be found through the paradoxical inversion of the rational values of speculative philosophy and through the “leap of faith” in the crucified Christ. It is here that we have the very root of Existentialism. In his preface Kierkegaard hints at a possible “sequel to Philosophical Fragments in 17 pieces”; this sequel was published in 1846 namely as the 600 pages long Concluding Unscientific Postscript to the Philosophical Fragments which is 83 pages long…. Only one single presentation-copy of Philosophical Fragments is known to exist. Himmelstrup: 62. The present copy is no. 23 in Girsel's "Kierkegaard" The Catalogue which can be found here. hardcover

First Edition First Issue of Kierkegaard's doctoral thesis on the concept of irony for which he obtained permission to write in Danish rather than the usually required Latin. The work is divided into two parts the first dealing with Socrates as an 'ironist' and the second with the concept of irony per se. ".Irony set the pattern for subsequent writings by its masterful and at times lyrical style its humour and satire. Because of its subtlety the dissertation has often been misunderstood. In particular it has commonly been viewed as a youthful Hegelian writing whereas actually it is an ironic attack on both Hegelianism and romanticism each being made to overwhelm the other. From the literary standpoint the book is rich in allusions to philosophic and general sources.". Arbaugh Kierkegaard's Authorship 1968 p. 47 Himmelstrup 8. Rand I p. 320. F.

In this work Kierkegaard invidiously contrasts the irony of Socrates with the comparatively palliated and world-weary irony of the romantics. Irony constitutes the first in that series of multivalent existential categories the exception the Extraordinary the incommensurate Angst the leap faith the absurd the 'offense' the moment deployed against the Hegelian System. Indeed irony and the figure of the ironist are central to Kierkegaard's entire 'aesthetic' corpus. Socrates was a figure to whom Kierkegaard would regularly return as an antidote to the 'speculative disease' in philosophy."

Soren Kierkegaard is widely regarded as the first existential philosopher and though much of his work was not translated into major European languages until the turn of the 20th century once this happened his work on the philosophy of religion and the nature of morality quickly became very influential. Karl Barth's theology the fiction of Franz Kafka and J.D. Salinger and the psychological theories of Viktor Frankl Carl Rogers and Erich Fromm all draw from pieces of Kierkegaard's writings. C.A.
