PHL.3032 Nietzsche and Kierkegaard
Kierkegaard and Nietzsche were seminal thinkers who changed the focus of philosophizing. They were the first to insist on the limits of reason and to deal with irrationality, the incommensurability between the finite and infinite, to describe the absurd, finite and contingent aspects of existence and culture. But from these shared assumptions Kierkegaard concluded to subjectivity and faith - "subjective certainty in the face of objective uncertainty" - while Nietzsche returned to an aesthetic morality and value creativity - "we have art in order not to perish from the truth."
