I used to like Kierkegaard but he basically ruined all my friendships

>my best friend has been going through hard times facing social disconnect and a lack of determination
>he calls me and everyone else to his house
>this fucker staged his own intervention
>Shows us the noose he tied as he sobs and explains in detail his ennui and desperation
>We all work together to explain to him why he shouldn't do it
>he looks at me, his dearest and oldest friend, dead in the eyes
>I screw my courage to the sticking place and meat his gaze
>If you hang yourself you'll regret it, I say
>He cries and finally lets go of the noose, the tension lifts and we all breathe easily
>Mission achieved we all go h-
>I can't, I am compelled to expound the full philosophy
>However, if you do not hang yourself you will also regret it
>shrieks of rage as I get driven out by harridans who don't understand the struggles of the aesthete
>Find out he attempted to OD on sleeping pills that night

Fuck Kierkegaard and fuck them for not returning my moka express I brought in strictest confidence.

You'll need a decent understanding of the Bible, you can't rely on half remembered school lessons. Kierkegaard is just about popular enough that you could find a reading list for relevant parts if you look online.
He also spends a fair bit of time refuting ideas from Hegel so read a primer on his ideas if you want to understand what's going on there, you don't need to read all of Phenomenology. That said, any three minute popular YouTube video about Hegel is worse than nothing when it comes to understanding his philosophy.

I need to read more Kierkegaard again. I speak Danish so it consider it a duty to enjoy his writings and I can wholeheartedly say that I’ve never seen such beautiful eloquence as Kierkegaards writings in his mother tongue. He is hilarious and funny as hell too
