The Present Age | Søren Kierkegaard
The Present Age was published in 1846 by Søren Kierkegaard. He discusses the philosophical implications of a society dominated by mass media, foreseeing the rise of twenty-four hour news and social media, it examines the philosophical implications of a culture of endless, inconsequential commentary and debate – a society eerily similar to our own.
While a revolutionary age is an action of action, the present age is one of understanding and reflection, without passion. It is the age of advertisement and publicity. Nothing ever happens but there is immediate publicity everywhere, as well as an age of anticipation when even recognition is received in advance.
“There is no more action or decision in our day than there is perilous delight in swimming in shallow waters.”
