  This work pays great attention to the social and political context of Kierkegaard's Denmark, devoting the first half of the work to this essential groundwork. It is not quite a biography, but is more of an analysis of SK's later works in their political context. It also refutes some of the well-worn conclusions of Lowrie et al on Kierkegaard's relationship with his father and Regine Olsen. This is an essential work for historical research.
