Kierkegaard's"The Present Age"(with Lil Gidding) | 032 - a podcast by Isaac and Dan(iel)

This week, Isaac and Dan are joined by a present friend and former alias, the poster formerly known as @LilGidding, for a conversation on The Present Age by Søren Kierkegaard. According to Kierkegaard, the present age is an "age of reflection" characterized by a distinct lack of passion and action, an abundance of prudence and sensibility. How are these characteristics currently embodied in our own age? How may the individual be recovered from the hegemony of what Kierkegaard calls "the public"? Questions like this and more feature prominently in this episode.
