Kierkegaard and the Question Concerning Technology by Dr. Christopher B. Barnett

Description: Kierkegaard and the Question Concerning Technology by Dr. Christopher B. Barnett Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Over the last several decades, technology has emerged as an important area of interest for both philosophers and theologians. Yet, despite his status as one of modernitys seminal thinkers, SØren Kierkegaard is not often seen as one who contributed to the field. Kierkegaard and the Question Concerning Technology argues otherwise. Christopher B. Barnett shows that many of Kierkegaards criticisms of "the present age" relate to the increasing dominance of technology in the West, and he puts Kierkegaards thought in conversation with subsequent thinkers who grappled with technological issues, from Martin Heidegger to Thomas Merton.Barnett shows that Kierkegaards writing, with its marked emphases on personal "upbuilding," stands as a place where deeper, non-technical modes of thinking are both commended and nurtured. In doing so, Barnett presents a Kierkegaard who remains relevant--perhaps all too relevant--in todays digital age. Author Biography Christopher B. Barnett is Associate Professor in the Department of Theology and Religious Studies at Villanova University, USA.
