Abstract

PROTASIO, Myriam Moreira. Reflections on the basis for a building of a Kierkegaardian psychology. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2012, vol.12, n.3, pp. 817-832. ISSN 1808-4281.

The Kierkegaard's work has been the subject of extensive studies from different research areas: philosophy, theology, politics and aesthetics. It occurs to ask ourselves: in what space is possible to think a psychology in Kierkegaard? This work intends to seek, from the research about the meaning of the choice made by Kierkegaard in dialogue with Socrates and Christ, the foundation on which we can start thinking about the design of an existential psychology in Kierkegaard. To do so, intends to answer the following questions: what led Kierkegaard to build their investigations by starting the figure of Socrates and the "Concept of Irony" to then take as a counterpoint of all his thought and the figure of Christ? What is the meaning of its investigation, the voice of the pseudonym Johannes Climacus, about the difference between the master and the master Socrates Christ? What space is possible for a psychology that emerged from this research?

Keywords : Kierkegaard; Socrates; irony; Christ; paradox; existential psychology.
