About this video

Runtime: 32 mins

Joshua Furnal explores the Catholic reception of Soren Kierkegaard, a 19th-century Protestant thinker and critic of Christianity. He suggests that despite historical suspicions, Kierkegaard can be considered an ally to contemporary Catholic theology. He elaborates by examining the thoughts of key Catholic figures such as Jean Daniélou, Yves Congar, and Cornelio Fabro, associated with the resourcement movement. He emphasizes Kierkegaard's influence in stimulating theological renewal that led to the Second Vatican Council and his continuing impact on Catholic theologians, focusing on themes such as anxiety, aesthetics, Christology, and Mariology.
