KE Løgstrup is Denmark's greatest theological and philosophical thinker since Søren Kierkegaard. KE Løgstrup (1905-81) is Denmark's greatest theological and philosophical thinker since Søren Kierkegaard. What drove his thinking was a desire to understand humans and our lives together: Where does the destructiveness we all know (but which Løgstrup had witnessed at close range through two world wars) come from? And why do phenomena such as trust, love and mercy still thrive in the world, even in the most unfavorable environments? These are the big questions that characterize Løgstrup's writing, and he goes all the way around in his attempt to find the answers. In the lecture series, we will focus in particular on his ethical thinking (the ethical requirement and the sovereign expressions of life), his philosophical considerations of art, and his philosophy of religion. - Date: 29 September 2026 - Time: 10:00–12:00 - Venue: Kolding Bibliotek - Address: Slotssøvejen 4, Kolding, Denmark - Admission: Free
