Dostoevsky, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche & Kafka  (English, Paperback, Hubben William)

William Hubben discusses how Dostoevsky, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche and Kafka shaped the modern world in this book on philosophy.

Summary of the Book

Their names are found of the biggest in the world of modern philosophy. Dostoevsky, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche and Kafka were outsiders in their societies, ahead of their time in thought and ideals. They didn’t fit in the nineteenth-century limitations, and in their writings, they appear to be something beyond philosophers, as though they were prophets of a larger doctrine. They had every right to consider themselves harbingers of ideals, for their contribution to philosophy, theology and thinking go far beyond anything before them. Their apocalyptic visions of the future continue to haunt readers to this day, guiding them and showing them what mankind has in store if it goes down this path. In this book, William Hubben discusses the vital significance of these four philosophical juggernauts. He shows readers how they shaped the present world, and how their suffering shaped them.
