INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH
Because of the Hong Kierkegaard Library’s international prominence, the collection hosts an increasingly diverse community of scholars. In the past several years, scholars from six continents have called the Library home. Their fields have varied greatly, ranging from postcolonial studies to epistemology to translation work. The collection’s resources and organization allow for the existence of a diverse group of scholars who gather to further their academic research and meaningfully engage with other scholars.
With 20,000 book volumes, periodical and newspaper articles, and archival materials, the collection proves a valuable resource center for research in areas in philosophy and religion, but inevitably crosses disciplines in all areas of study. The Library welcomes all learners and encourages both scholars and students alike to utilize our collection.
In November of 2021, the Library moved to Steensland Hall. Its collection continues to serve students, scholars and anyone interested in the writings of Søren Kierkegaard, our 19th-century Danish philosopher.
