ABSTRACT
Originally from Hungary and a with a Ph.D. in German Studies, Katalin Nun is an independent author and scholar, who has lived in Copenhagen for many years and worked in close association with the Kierkegaard Research Centre. She has made many outstanding contributions to Soren Kierkegaard studies, for example, by organizing conferences and editing a number of major volumes in the series, Kierkegaard Research: Sources, Reception and Resources, where she is also a member of the executive board. Kierkegaard scholars are used to seeing works such as the articles in the well-known collection Feminist Interpretations of Kierkegaard, where the authors struggle with the questions of just how much of a feminist or a misogynist Kierkegaard really was. Despite the many aspects of Kierkegaard's character that may be regarded as misogynistic, there can be no doubt that he nourished a great appreciation for the dramatic art of the great actress.
