Cracking the Mirror: On Kierkegaard's Concerns about Friendship
2007
Overview
In this article, I offer a brief account of some of Kierkegaard's key concerns about friendship: its \"preferential\" nature and its being a form of self-love. Kierkegaard's endorsement of the ancient idea of the friend as \"second self\" involves a common but misguided assumption: that friendship depends largely upon likeness between friends. This focus obscures a vitally important element, highlighted by the so-called \"drawing\" view of friendship. Once this is emphasized, we can see a significant aspect - though by no means all - of Kierkegaard's worry as misplaced. However, the \"drawing\" view also enables us to begin to see what a \"Kierkegaardian\" friendship might look like.
