Cover -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1 Kierkegaard's Ambiguous Aesthetics -- 2 Becoming Christian -- 3 Christ and the Art of Subjective Becoming -- 4 Mimesis, Aesthetics, and Christian Becoming -- 5 Becoming amidst the Existence Stages -- 6 Becoming and Art -- Postscript -- Bibliography -- Index.
In the digital world, Kierkegaard's thought is valuable in thinking about aesthetics as a component of human development, both including but moving beyond the religious context as its primary center of meaning. Seeing human formation as interrelated with aesthetics makes art a vital dimension of human existence. Contributing to the debate about Kierkegaard's conception of the aesthetic, Kierkegaard, Aesthetics, and Selfhood argues that Kierkegaard's primary concern is to provocatively explore how a self becomes Christian, with aesthetics being a vital dimension for such self-formation. At a broader level, Peder Jothen also focuses on the role, authority, and meaning of aesthetic expression within religious thought generally and Christianity in particular.
