An Evocation of Kierkegaard

An Evocation of Kierkegaard

"An Evocation of Kierkegaard" (1997) by David Cain is an illustrated book about the world of Søren Kierkegaard. It is not a biography, rather a book about Kierkegaard in Copenhagen and the rest of Denmark. The book is a result of Cain's Kierkegaard pilgrimage in 1984.

David Cain himself calls his book a "coffee-table Kierkegaard" and it offers a contemporary view of Kierkegaard's Copenhagen.
