RODRIGUEZ, Pablo Uriel. Kierkegaard’s Concept of Alientation: an Analysis of the Ethical Concept of Dispair as the Kierkegaardean Description of Damaged Life. arete [online]. 2017, vol.29, n.2, pp.291-303. ISSN 1016-913X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/arete.201702.003.

Either/Or, Kierkegaard’s first pseudonymous work, begins with an exposition of the aesthetic view of life (first volume), followed by the ethical critic of the aesthetic conception of existence (second volume). The category of despair is the main concept in the rejection of aesthetic: the basic claim of Either/Or II is that the aesthetic life is despair, and the ethical life offers an escape from despair. This paper aims to present Kierkegaard’s first conceptualization of despair as a theory of alienation.
