ABSTRACT
The significance of Hugh Ross Mackintosh (1870-1936) to Anglophone reception of Søren Kierkegaard lies in the fact that, especially in his posthumously published book, Types of Modern Theology (1937), he gave Kierkegaard a central place in the history of German religious thought from the beginning of the modern period to Karl Barth (1886-1968). Mackintosh saw Kierkegaard as “in some degree a precursor of Karl Barth.”1
