Yet Point of View is neither a confession nor a defense; it is an author's story of a lifetime of writing, his understanding of the maze of greatly varied works that make up his oeuvre. Upon the imminent publication of the second edition of Either/Or, Kierkegaard again intended to cease writing. Now was the time for a direct "report to history" on the authorship as a whole. In addition to Point of View, which was published posthumously, the present volume also contains On My Work as an Author, a contemporary substitute, and the companion piece Armed Neutrality UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781400832408 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781400832408 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/cover/covers/9781400832408.jpg ER -
