Document Summary
Wants to create a subjective hunger for the truth. Thinks socrates has the right approach (pretending he doesn"t know the truth in order to investigate it) Trying to get us interested in the subjectivity rather than being neutrally objective: make the reader personally interested in the truth. 72: becoming subjective: we need another concept of truth besides objective truth. Interior has to be good in order to make the external good. 78: are people who aren"t historically famous nobodies, kierkegaard: no! What matters is the intention, not the result: hegel couldn"t be more wrong, what matters for you subjectively determines the health of your soul, being aware of the human condition. 81: whether truth is empirical or idealistic. Is truth out-there and we have to discover it or whether truth is constructed by our mind. 83: essential truth, the truth you have to learn for yourself in order for it to be any good, only ethical knowing is essential knowing.
