It takes time to get through Kierkegaard’s edifying discourses, not because philosophical and theological terminology complicates appropriation, as is the case with the pseudonymous works, but rather because of their rhetorical complexity. This is due, in turn, to the fact that the discourses ought to be read slowly. The reader is thereby exposed to time, experiences time, which is what the discourses are about. In each text, the rhetoric is not just a meaningful dimension, but also a part of the meaning. The text’s images are emotively moving, but they also move before the eyes of the reader, who is drawn into the movement and is transformed by it.
