Volume 2, Tome I: Kierkegaard and the Greek World - Socrates and Plato

This volume has been organised so as to reflect the full spectrum of Kierkegaard's Greek sources. Tome I is dedicated to the different pictures of Socrates. It contains a series of articles on Plato, who is clearly his main Greek source in general. In addition, a second section features articles on Xenophon and Aristophanes, the other ancient sources of Socrates discussed by Kierkegaard. A third section contains articles that treat the reception of the figure of Socrates in the Germanophone world and in Denmark respectively.
