Friedrich Nietzsche: Encyclopedia II - Friedrich Nietzsche - Kierkegaard and Nietzsche

Many philosophers believe Nietzsche, aside from the name, knew little of the 19th century philosopher Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855). Georg Brandes, a Danish philosopher, wrote to Nietzsche in 1888 asking him to study the works of Kierkegaard, to which Nietzsche replied that he would.
