Kierkegaard? More like Kierketard. Knight of Resignation? Knight of Faith? Is this philosophy -- or a D&D rulebook.

The aesthetic stage person sounds a lot like what Nietzsche would call a person cooking with Ressentiment.

Why the fuck are Kierk and Nietzsche so similar ?

So there is this girl I like and would like to ask out.
If I bring myself to truly believe that I am bound to the act by divine will and that a "yes" from her sweet lips is guaranteed again by something higher, and thus I can completely free myself from any doubt and anxiety, will I become a Knight of Faith if not for eternity like based Mary just for a week ?

We know that the danish scholar Georg Brandes mentions a book he had just written about Kierkegaard, to Nietzsche in a correspondence.
Nietzsche replies that he would like to "work with the psychological problem Kierkegaard".
We also know that Nietzche ordered a copy of a book by H.L. Martensen, an adversary a Kierkegaard. This suggest that Nietzsche studied Kierkegaard in depth.

>> No.4715676

Are these "Knight of ___________" stages concentrated in a single one of Kierkegaard's works, or are they something he developed over the whole course of his philosophy?

Basically, if I wanted to read more about them, where in his work should I go?

>Kierkegaard returned the next day and spoke with Regine. To her query as to whether he would ever marry, Kierkegaard icily responded: "Well, yes, in ten years, when I have begun to simmer down and I need a lusty young miss to rejuvenate me."[5]
>girls leaves him for being an 2alpha5me jock

>Regine was crushed by the whole affair, as was Kierkegaard, who described spending his nights crying in his bed without her.[5]

The only ones mentioned are Mary and Abraham.
Kierkegaard even states there may not have been any more or that every other person walking down the street might be one.
