Abstract
To be sure, the subtitle of Hall’s work accurately portrays its content: the book delivers a Kierkegaardian critique of the modern age. The thought of Kierkegaard is in the forefront of Hall’s discussion, although the final product is much more than simply an exegesis of Kierkegaard. This is because a Polanyian perspective--or more accurately, a Polanyian/Poteatian perspective--informs the view Hall argues for. While, as I shall indicate, I do not think Hall’s fusion of Kierkegaard and Polanyi/Poteat is seamless, his achievement in the book is considerable. His thought is challenging and stimulating. For those interested in extending the existential and Christian dimensions of Polanyi’s thought, Hall raises some intriguing possibilities.
