Objectives: New opportunities for interpreting Kierkegaard's
philosophy of existence. Danmarks Grundforskningsfond has awarded
a grant of 27 million crowns covering the next five years to a
new centre located in and hosted by Copenhagen University's
Theology Faculty. The planning of the centre has been done by
Niels Jørgen Cappelørn from the Danish Bible
Society and Asst. Prof. Joakim Garff from the university. The
centre will be directed by Niels Jørgen Cappelørn
and will be a universal meeting point for Danish and foreign
Kierkegaard scholars; its main objective will be research into
several central and topical spheres in Kierkegaard's theology,
ethics and philosophy. A major task will be the creation of a new
annotated edition of Kierkegaard's collected works and posthumous
papers, including his journals.
