  • Damna Usuum: Common Law, Conscience and the “Sufferance of Uses”

    Open AccessAlastair HannayARTICLEThe Cambridge Law Journal2025

    The Damna Usuum was a series of complaints about the operation of uses written during the negotiations with the Commons which culminated in the Statute of Uses (1536). Through detailed analysis of the manuscript, this paper demonstrates that the Damna Usuum has been misunderstood by legal historians. Rather than being a public document intended to persuade the Commons to support reform; the Damna Usuum can be shown to be a series of rough notes p…

  • A Short Life of Kierkegaard

    Walter Lowrie, Alastair HannayBOOKA Short Life of Kierkegaard2013

    A small, insignificant-looking intellectual with absurdly long legs, Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855) was a veritable Hans Christian Andersen caricature of a man. A strange combination of witty cosmopolite and melancholy introvert, he spent years writing under a series of fantastical pseudonyms, lavishing all the splendor of his mind on a seldom-appreciative world. He had a tragic love affair with a young girl, was dominated by an unforgettable Old …

    Alastair HannayCHAPTERKierkegaard2010

    For orientation in the plan of the Crumbs That the point of departure was taken in paganism, and why The reader of the Crumbs ' crumb of philosophy will recall that the piece was not didactic but experimental. It took its point of departure in paganism in order, experimentally, to arrive at an interpretation of existence which could truly be said to go further than paganism. Modern speculation seems almost to have pulled off the trick of going fu…

  • Concluding Unscientific Postscript to the Philosophical Crumbs

    Alastair HannayBOOKKierkegaard2009

    Kierkegaard's Concluding Unscientific Postscript is a classic of existential literature. It concludes the first and richest phase of Kierkegaard's pseudonymous authorship and is the text that philosophers look to first when attempting to define Kierkegaard's own philosophy. Familiar Kierkegaardian themes are introduced in the work, including truth as subjectivity, indirect communication, the leap, and the impossibility of forming a philosophical …

  • Two ways of coming back to reality: Kierkegaard and Lukács

    Alastair HannayARTICLEHistory of European Ideas1995

    Georg Lukfics, in his confrontation with Existenzphilosophie after World War II, poured scorn on what he called this 'permanent carnival of fetishised inwardness' which continued, he said, to 'mesmerise and mislead bourgeois intellectuals'.~ Historically, he held Husserl and Heidegger accountable, but also Kierkegaard, and the latter together with Nietzsche he described as 'antidemocratic', holding both responsible for the destruction of reason. …

  • Solitary souls and infinite help: Kierkegaard and Wittgenstein

    Alastair HannayARTICLEHistory of European Ideas1990References: 1

    This might tempt us to add the above remarks to others in Cultureand Value, and elsewhere, which confirm the influence of Kierkegaard on Wittgenstein’s thoughts on religion.’ But there are difficulties in calling these, and some other connected remarks, Kierkegaardian in the sense that one might reasonably expect to find parallel expressions of closely similar views in Kierkegaard’s own writings. These stem from the fact that Wittgenstein’s remar…
