Özet:

 Kierkegaard, one of the most important thinkers of 19th century Europe, marks a turning point in the history of philosophy, both in his life and in his ideas that transcend his time. Kierkegaards critical approach to modern philosophy and Enlightenment thought, considered the starting point for existential philosophy, also formed the basis for his understanding of truth and ethics. Kierkegaards views on truth, ethics, and religion essentially focus on a single problem, the problem of being oneself. Kierkegaard sees being oneself not as an abstract, rational essence or ideal, but as a concrete, existential, vital state of being. To what extent is it possible to being oneself, which in Kierkegaards philosophy of existence stands out as a possibility for modern people? Kierkegaard addressed the problem of being oneself on an existential basis, questioning it within the perils of the age he envisioned and seeking a solution. In Kierkegaards philosophy, there are important states of existence that will bring the possibility of being oneself which is described in various ways within aesthetic, ethical, and religious realms of existence, to our time. These states of existence that will create the possibility for the contemporary individual to being oneself can be listed as individuality, freedom, interiority, passion, attachment, fear, pain and hopelessness.

 19. yüzyıl Avrupasının önemli düşünürlerinden biri olan Kierkegaard hem yaşamıyla hem de çağını aşan düşünceleriyle felsefe tarihinde bir kırılma noktası oluşturmaktadır. Varoluşçu felsefenin hareket noktası olarak kabul edilen Kierkegaardın modern felsefeye ve aydınlanma düşüncesine yönelik eleştirel yaklaşımı, hakikat ve etik anlayışına da temel oluşturmuştur. Kierkegaardın hakikat, etik ve din konusundaki görüşleri, aslında tek bir probleme kendi olma problemine odaklanmaktadır. Kierkegaard, kendi olmayı soyut, rasyonel bir öz ya da ideal olarak değil, somut, varoluşsal, yaşamsal bir varoluş durumu olarak görmektedir. Kierkegaardın varoluş felsefesinde bir olasılık olarak öne çıkan kendi olma modern insan için ne kadar mümkün? Kierkegaard kendi olma sorununu varoluşsal temelde ele almış, bunu öngördüğü çağın tehlikeleri içinde sorgulamış ve çözüm aramıştır. Kierkegaard felsefesinde estetik, etik ve dinsel varoluş alanlarında farklı şekillerde tanımlanan kendi olma olanağını çağımızda olanaklı hale getirecek önemli varoluşsal durumlar bulunmaktadır. Çağdaş bireyde kendi olma olanağını yaratacak bu varoluş durumları, bireysellik, özgürlük, içsellik, tutku, bağlılık, kaygı, acı, umutsuzluk ve yalnızlık olarak sıralanmaktadır.
