  • Interpreting Kierkegaard’s Notion That 'Truth Is Subjectivity' Healy, Michael J. | Chervin, Ronda De Sola 2019 Quaestiones Disputatae , Vol. 9 , Issue 2 , S. 31 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 2150-5756 | 2374-555X 10.5840/qd2019923 Abstract

    The article interprets Kierkegaard’s thesis that “truth is subjectivity,” unfolding four possible meanings:1. the deepest kinds of knowledge can only come from lived experience;2. self-knowledge is essential for metanoia or change;3. if the “how” is right, then the “what” or the truth will also be given; and4. the deepest importance of truth lies in living it.These reflections are then related to personalist themes: the incarnate person as responsible, as inviolable, and as averse to coercion; the incarnate person as having a mysterious interiority, an infinite abyss of existence, and as never reducible to a mere part of a whole nor simply determined from within or without; this interiority is not isolating but opens up toward others; and freedom is not arbitrary but implies universal moral and particular religious calls.Finally, I ask whether Kierkegaard’s personalism is too individualistic and does not do full justice to some of the themes here.
