Kierkegaard On Farce
Kierkegaard On Farce

Summary/Abstract: The article Kierkegaard on Farce deals with the question of farce in the works of the Danish philosopher and the father of existentialism, Søren Kierkegaard (1813-1855), most notably in his work Repetition (1843). It proposes that Kierkegaard saw farce as a powerful tool to question not only performativity, the nature of movements, the repetition, and the uniformity, but also the very foundations of our symbolic order.
