Book Summary
About the Book: The Present Age: on the Death of Rebellion (Resistance Library)
"A revolutionary age is an age of action; ours is the age of advertisement and
publicity. Nothing ever happens but there is immediate publicity everywhere."—
From The Present Age In The Present Age (1846), Søren Kierkegaard analyzes the
philosophical implications of a society dominated by the mass-media. What makes
the essay so remarkable is the way it seems to speak directly to our time—i.e.
the Information Age—where life is dominated by mere "information" not true
"knowledge." Kierkegaard even goes so far as to say that advertising and
publicity almost immediately co-opts and suppresses revolutionary
actions/thoughts.
