Soren Kierkegaard was a Danish philosopher, theologist, writer, and culture critic born in the year 1813. He has published a fair amount of works in his lifetime, most written under various pseudonyms. These pseudonyms expressed all kinds of different, sometimes even contradicting, views that have caused historians trying to find Kierkegaard’s true beliefs to scratch their heads. Some of his pseudonyms were: Johannes Climacus, Anti-Climacus, Constantin Constantius, and ‘The Individual.’ Some of his most notable works are: ‘Either/or’, ‘Fear and Trembling’, ‘Sickness unto Death’, and ‘The Concept of Anxiety’. Kierkegaard is widely regarded as the father of Existentialism, a theory asserting that human beings possess no innate essence or fixed purpose and are free to determine their identity. Kierkegaard wrote extensively on this subject, although never using the term ‘existentialism’ himself.
