“…As Sarah Buss (2005) explains more generally, we know how to live with deception, how to flourish with it, how to build on it. Taking a cue from Søren Kierkegaard (2013), Buss (2005) suggests that deception pervades courting; it provides the elements of seduction. At the start of a romance, people put on a good face, contriving to create the appearance that they are particularly handsome, beautiful, thoughtful, considerate, cultured, and so on-more so than they really are.…”

This essay offers a philosophical defense of deception about reservation prices in business negotiation. Its discussion is prompted by arguments that Nicholas Sherwood makes in a recent issue of Business Ethics Quarterly and develops ideas I put forward in an earlier issue of Business Ethics Quarterly. The essay argues that although reservation price deception cannot be justified by appeal to the consent of negotiating parties, it can be justified by appeal to a separate but related notion, assumption of risk, as long as the assumption of risk occurs in a suitably fair context.

“…Thus, it can be concluded that a dialogue with another individual does not occur because the subsistence is directed only to the self and to own egoistic needs. These principles are revealed in Kierkegaard's work The Seducer's Diary [33]. Since an individual is not capable of establishing an authentic dialogue with another person in this stage, he/she loses "the self", lives in the world of illusions, constantly feels disappointment, emptiness and vacuity because, according to Kierkegaard, the fullness of human subsistence discloses only through the authentic deep love relation.…”

The article discusses interpretations of communication as dialogue existence in Søren Kierkegaard's philosophy. The beginning of the article is dedicated to the origins and trends of communicative philosophy. The links between communicative and existential philosophies are also presented. The second part of the article focuses on philosophical texts of Kierkegaard. On the basis of three (aesthetic, ethical and religious) phases in the life suggested by this thinker, the aim is set to reveal the peculiarities and prerequisites of dialogue existence and to highlight the necessity of the dialogue with God, its importance to human existence as well as his/her ability to create a love dialogue with the surrounding people.

“…Reflecting on Cordelia going to confession, Johannes says: 'The situation is really most seductive, and since she is the only figure in the piece, there is nothing to prevent one's imagining the church in which all this takes place being so spacious that several very different preachers could all preach here simultaneously.' 55 There are different ways one could imagine and articulate churchly spaciousness, but for Kierkegaard here, it is preaching that comes to mind. Such casual references are significant in that they show how much the practice of preaching dominated Kierkegaard's theological, philosophical and literary landscape, whatever he was writing or thinking about.…”

A Broken Engagement: Reassessing Barth's Relationship to Kierkegaard on the Grounds of Subjectivity and Preaching

Despite Barth's initial appropriations of Kierkegaard, he famously discarded the Dane from the theological ‘canon’ due to the latter's alleged anthropocentric subjectivism. Yet Kierkegaard was himself a preacher and polemical homiletician, seeking merely to appropriate the objective truth of the proclaimed word. Barth's Basel prison sermons reveal this same endeavour to render the eternally significant message temporally significant for his hearers. In Kierkegaard's Christendom, a corrective focus on subjectivity was the only way to remain faithful to the ‘objective’ truth of the gospel. Barth and Kierkegaard are juxtaposed here not in contrast (as Barth might have preferred) but in affinity, in that both sought to evoke the dialectical subjectivity of objectivity through preaching.
