Summary/Abstract: Although a well-known opponent of Hegel’s speculative philosophy, Kierkegaard, in his philosophical thought, nevertheless assumed and of course modeled precisely a dialectic approach to life. Instead of ignoring the self and holding it under the discipline of absolutist whirlwind, with existential dialectic he elevated the person and as the result of all of life’s aspirations he set the individual as the only goal. It is precisely this dialectic that will involve within itself the aesthetics, ethics and as a culmination religion, and through Don Juan, Socrates and Christ it will try to serve as a guide to gain oneself, always and again fully and with the power of the absurd by abandoning oneself to God, through the power of silence and constantly overcoming despair. The outcome is promising, it is gaining the self.
