Description
Résumé:This paper investigates the concept and the experience of conscience as an interface of aesthetic, ethical, and religious aspects of Kierkegaard’s existential approach, while criticizing his reductionist definition of ‘aesthetics’ and the opposition he draws between ethics and aesthetics. A comparison of Kierkegaard’s theory of indirect ‘existence’-communication with Martin Buber’s philosophy of dialogue shows that Kierkegaard overlooks three crucial moments of truly liberating, conscientious communication, including the dialogical dynamics of becoming-oneself vis-à-vis the Other.
