This collection of essays analyzes a systematic question: To what extent does Kierkegaard fall back upon positions of Fichte in his dispute with Hegel? The contributions explore this question, beginning with Kierkegaard's dissertation On the Concept of Irony to The Sickness unto Death. The thematic spectrum ranges from the theory of self-consciousness and the basis of ethical reflection to the anthropological basis of religion. The elucidation of the systematic relationships between Kierkegaard and Fichte has led to a revision of the prevalent views on the philosophy between Hegel and Kierkegaard.
