ABSTRACT
As normally happens with other thinkers, the reception of Kierkegaard in Spain has been belated and a bit precarious, especially when one compares it with that of other European countries. In spite of the fact that already in the very first decade of the twentieth century both Miguel de Unamuno and Joan Estelrich i Artigues had discovered the Dane and tried to present him to the Spanish reader,1 there was not a general interest in Kierkegaard in the following years. For a long time, there were only personal approaches to him in Spain. There were partial and isolated contributions which did not constitute a solid ground for a future reception.
