How would Kierkegaard and Nietzsche respond to each other?
gpt
I think Nietzsche's response would be a lot like the one he wrote about Thomas Carlyle, that Kierkegaard wrote work that he knew had revolutionary potential, but failed to give it sufficient clarity or direct expression, even to the point of missing the consequences it would have on religious faith and politics.

I think Kierkegaard's response would depend on which part of Nietzsche's work they were discussing. Towards the end, he would probably find the concept of the Übermensch laughable and contrast it with the reality of Nietzsche's life as well as well as undermines some of Nietzsche's greatest virtues as a thinker and leads him to one more Idealism Nietzsche indicted his contemporaries for chasing after. Then he would probably object to Nietzsche's provocatory style as missing the point of the role of irony and subjectivity in finding truth.
