In the "Concluding Unsicentific Postscript" Kirkegaard, writing through a pseudonym Johannes Climacus, argues for the concept that "Subjectivity is Truth"

That seems like a very Ad Hoc way of understanding "truth", in the sense that it apparently asks each individual to consider their own being the only method for substantiation of truth, relative to their own being. It certainly gives a new meaning to "identity". So I suppose if you take it at face value, yes, it contradicts with any form of monism. Honestly though I'm not even sure how to interpret this, let alone respond to it.

It really gets into the whole "Human Being/Human Becoming" paradigm that guys like Nietzsche and Heidegger were always on about. I find Kierkegaard to be interesting, but in this case he falls victim to the sort of issue like:
"Imagine if the only truth were mankind's constant personal effort to find truth" "Okay...what would that imply?" "I dunno" It's an interesting concept but it doesn't seem to me at least, to especially correspond to an actual belief system you can use practically in the world. At best it's a somewhat more spiritual concept of the will to power, and Nietzsche phrases it all better anyway. |
