/lit/ - Literature

(Pic slightly unrelated to my question)
I'm looking for a chart that has the title in the middle of "something something get out of Kierkegaard Heresy"
It has a black background with some books
I remember seeing it on this board, and I'm sort of interested in reading him, but I'm unsure because of his quote "truth is subjective"

Literally you can only argue against nihilism with theology and religion. If you want to read somebody who argues against nihilism in a truly convincing manner, then read Kierkegaard. That's how I grew out of nihilism. Pic related is a guide on a recommended reading order. Personally I started with Fear and Trembling.

Since you asked nicely, and OP seems to need stimuli, a brief introduction:

and now just read his works. It's fine if it takes you some reading ahead to understand claims such as
“The self is a relation which relates itself to its own self, or it is that in the relation [which accounts for it] that the relation relates itself to its own self; the self is not the relation but [consists in the fact] that the relation relates itself to its own self.”
but you have to process through them, just like learning literally anything else.

He's not an existentialist according to the current definition of the word. In any case, I don't think he believed that "existence precedes essence".

He inspired it by focusing his philosophy on the single individual and his experience of being, of existing in the world. He provided concepts relevant to later existentialism (and philosophy in general really), in addition to influencing theology, psychology and litterature in significant ways.

Not only is he a very interesting thinker in his own right, he's arguably the most beautiful writer in the history of western philosophy.

Why are you not reading him right now you pleb?

Some smarty pants made this, it's bretty gud.

I can't guarantee that this is good advice because I haven't followed it myself.
