ABSTRACT
Archimedes was a Syracusan mathematician, famous for discoveries in applied mechanics. To him is attributed the saying: “Give me a place to stand (a fulcrum), and I will move the world,” hence the phrase Archimedean Point, used connotatively.1 This expression frequently occurs in the works of Kierkegaard, who usually uses it as a philosophical notion designating something utopian, that is, something ultimately not achievable because it is “outside the world”2 (udenfor Verden) and outside the “restrictions of time and space.”3
