Caricature of Soeren Kierkegaard in Jewish periodical 'Corsaren' |
In his war with the “Corsaren” Soeren Kierkegaard never forgot, that the nasty periodical was written by a Jew.
He had formed his opinion of the Jews already a long time before the conflict with Goldschmidt.
But if he did not already care much for them, then of course his
judgement became even harder after the acquaintance with the “Corsaren”.
Soeren Kierkegaards hostile attitude towards Jews
can be explained; but one should not try to explain it away, as some
Kierkegaard-researchers have tried to do. By trying to do that, one takes
Soeren Kierkegaard out of the Copenhagen of Frederik the 6th and
Christian the 8th, where he belongs.
