Confusion of Spheres C

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Allusions to the relation between Kierkegaard and Wittgenstein are common in philosophy, but there has been little serious commentary on the relationship of their ideas. Genia Schönbaumsfeld closes this gap and offers new readings of Kierkegaard's and Wittgenstein's intriguing and influential conceptions of philosophy and religious belief.
