| 説明 | The love of Kierkegaard's life, Regina Olsen, lived in buildings on the right which were called the Six Sisters but were destroyed in 1900. Regina's father also worked at the National Bank here.Kierkegaard loved Regina Olsen whom he first met on 9th May 1837. She was too young at that time and therefore he kept his love undisclosed to her for three years till she was 17. Kierkegaard was also helping in her studies and often lending her books to read. On 8th September 1840 Kierkegaard left his home fully determined to tell his beloved about his so far hidden love. By chance he met her in the street outside Regina’s home. Regina told him that there was nobody at home, which Kierkegaard took as invitation and, therefore, accompanied to her home. He asked her to play piano for him which she gladly started. He suddenly picked the music book and threw it on the piano saying: ‘O, what do I care about music, it is you I seek, for two years I have been seeking you’. Regina was wonder–struck and just kept silent. Kierkegaard left Regina in the stage of a pleasant shock and then went straight to her father, before whom he submitted his request for Regina. His father did not commit at that time but called him home after two days. Accordingly in the afternoon of September 10th 1840 a meeting took place at the residence of Regina’s parents and Kierkegaard got consent from her father. Regina also showed her willingness. Their engagement was subsequently announced in a ceremony, which was attended by distinguished guests from Copenhagen.books.google.com/books?id=zOCIGmBDnIUC&pg=PA192&l...The following day Kierkegaard realized that he had committed a mistake. See -"Diary of a Seducer"www.amazon.com/Diary-Seducer-Soren-Kierkegaard/dp/1901285235en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Either/OrAfter that Kierkegaard left for Germany on 25th October 1841. During next four years he had made three trips to Berlin. Later Kierkegaard recorded in his diary-"I went to Berlin. I suffered exceedingly. I was reminded of her every day. Unto this day I have unconditionally kept my resolve to pray for her at least once every day, often twice, besides thinking about her as usual". |
