In his preface to this second edition of Historical Dictionary of Kierkegaard's Philosophy (first edition, ed. by Julia Watkin, CH, Jul'01, 38-5912)Barnett remarks that it is intended to "serve a few key purposes: (1) to synopsize the pivotal periods of Kierkegaard's complex oeuvre, (2) to situate Kierkegaard's writings in their sociohistorical context, and (3) to consolidate a number of indispensable resources for Kierkegaard's study." Barnett includes an extensive chronology covering 1756 through 2012 and a biographical introduction. The dictionary itself is alphabetically arranged, beginning with the term "Absolute" as Kierkegaard used it, and concluding (following the Danish alphabet) with "Ørsted, Hans Christian (1777-1851)," an eminent "Danish chemist, physicist, and philosopher." Recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty. General readers. a biographical introduction.
