Ser 4: 39; ser 5: 7, 11) [1st English in 1873-81-82] General part [1871], arts. 45-70, The highest good (God's kingdom, optimism and pessimism: Goethe and Byron, socialism and individualism). In 69-70 (p. 217-36) M. attacks Soren Kierkegaard: `What has been here charged against Vinet is true in a greater degree in regard to S. Kierkegaard, who, with great talent and powerful one-sidedness, has been with us the advocate of individualism.' (217) -- `He considers it as the misfortune of the age to know too much, and with all this knowledge to have forgotten what it is to exist. He has therefore made it the aim of his life to promote and carry through the category, "the individual." Should he ask for an inscription on his grave, he desires no other than this: "The individual man." If this category of S. Kierkegard is not understood by the present generation,he is yet persuaded that it will be understood in time coming.' (219) -- `His great idea is, that "Christianity is a vast deception; that all these thousands, without anything further,call themselves Christians; those many, many men, whose far, far greatest number, from all that can be discerned, have their lives in entirely different categories."' (225) -- `But, on our side, we continue to repeat,that all depends on what is the region to which we penetrate through this narrow pass--whether to dry and barren places or to a fruitful land. Therefore we continue to repeat: The individual and the kingdom of God; or rather: the kingdom of God and the individual. For, as Kierkegaard very justly observes with regard to ethical problems, "the actual solution is itself an art, a gift which cannot be taught."'
