It is our pleasure to present to the international Kierkegaard community the Kierkegaard Studies Yearbook for 2021, a peer-reviewed publication with contributions from scholars from all over the globe.

The goal of this series is and remains to serve international Kierkegaard studies by encouraging top-level scholarship in the field. We are dedicated to publishing articles of the highest quality and representing all aspects of the field, regardless of their methodology or interpretative orientation. Moreover, the editorial and advisory boards are deeply committed to creating a genuinely international forum for publication that integrates the many different traditions of Kierkegaard studies and brings them into a constructive and fruitful dialogue. To this end we publish contributions in English, French and German.

The Kierkegaard Studies Yearbook is an open submission publication. Potential authors should consult the De Gruyter homepage (http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/kier) and carefully follow the guidelines for submissions. After being blindly peer reviewed by established Kierkegaard scholars, only the very best papers are accepted for publication.

We would like to take the opportunity to express our continued gratitude to our publisher, De Gruyter, and here in particular to Dr. Albrecht Döhnert, for their kind support of this publication and Kierkegaard studies generally. We would also like to issue a sincere and continued word of thanks to our reviewers. Their effort and competence are crucial for maintaining a high standard for the Yearbook. We are thankful to all our readers and contributors for their support.

During the time the “Call for Papers” for the current volume was launched, the world was plagued by the Covid-19 pandemic. This has meant that conferences had to be cancelled, re-scheduled or organized differently. To secure a volume of sufficient length we have asked authors to send in the manuscripts that they prepared for the annual Kierkegaard conference in Copenhagen before the conference even took place. Additionally, we have asked the eminences grises of Kierkegaard scholarship if they were willing to contribute an article. Thanks to them and the other contributors we have been able to ensure a top-level volume for 2021: we are greatly in their debt!
