ABSTRACT
This chapter talks about the book Subjectivity and Objectivity in Kierkegaard, written by Marcio Gimenes de Paula. His Master's dissertation is entitled Subjectivity and Objectivity in the Debate between Socratism and Christianity in Kierkegaard: An Analysis of the Postscript. De Paula also writes about some important anthropological and philosophical ideas of Ludwig Feuerbach, whose masterpiece is The Essence of Christianity. Such ideas are the difference between animal nature and religion, religion as possessing its own logic and being representative of the split of man with himself, miracles as something natural, the essence of man as an object of religion. De Paula analyzes the peculiarity of Socrates' thought in the context of the work The Concept of Irony. According to the author, for the pseudonym Johannes Climacus, Socrates would present a systematic philosophy from the point of view of traditional pragmatism. Subjectivity and Objectivity in Kierkegaard is an interesting book, especially in its forays into the thinking of Lessing and Feuerbach.
