I was wondering if someone could help me find Japanese translations of stuff by Soren Kierkegaard. Yeah, I've kind of been in the mood for something philosophical, and, though my Japanese currently sucks at life, I'd like to try it anyways. I've looked all over the place, including on Sasugabooks and Amazon Japan. However, trying to write his name in katakana is a nightmare. Any thoughts?

Thank you very much, lol, but how in the world did you figure out his name was キェルケゴール in katakana?

If you don't know how to write someone's name (in kana or kanji), Wikipedia is your friend.

The easiest way is to search for his name on Japanese Wikipedia.

kierkergaard in Japanese!!! Sounds like a challenge. Why not try the classic "Story of Philosphy" by William Durrant. Get yourself used to philiophical concepts in Japanese.
