10 List of Abbreviations I Works by Kierkegaard I refer both to Kierkegaard s Danish texts and English translations. In a very few cases where the relevant Danish text is not included in Søren Kierkegaards Skrifter, I reference Søren Kierkegaards Papirer. When citing Søren Kierkegaards Skrifter, I refer to volume and page number (for example SKS 1, 61). In the case of Søren Kierkegaards Papirer, I follow the standard format: volume and tome number, entry category and number, and page number where appropriate (for example, Pap. VI B 53, 13). When the relevant text is available in English, I also refer to Kierkegaard s Writings and Journals and Papers (both trans. by Howard Hong and Edna Hong), alternatively to Kierkegaard s Journals and Notebooks. Kierkegaard s Writings includes references to the first edition of Samlede Værker in the margin, and volume 7 of Journals and Papers provides cross-references to Søren Kierkegaards Papirer. For a concordance list that covers the different editions of Samlede Værker as well as Søren Kierkegaards Papirer and Søren Kierkegaards Skrifter, see For an electronic edition of SKS, see I make use of the following standard abbreviations: ASKB Herman Peter Rohde, Auktionsprotokol over Søren Kierkegaards Bogsamling, Copenhagen: Det Kongelige Bibliotek BA The Book on Adler, Princeton: Princeton University Press, CA Concept of Anxiety, Princeton: Princeton University Press, CD Christian Discourses, Princeton: Princeton University Press, CI Concept of Irony, Princeton: Princeton University Press, CUP1 Concluding Unscientific Postscript to Philosophical Fragments, Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1992, vol.1.
