Kierkegaard’s construal of life as a journey, I must emphasize that his use of a variety of literary strategies, ranging from the construction of fictional authors to the formulation of philosophical arguments and schematizations, was designed to stimulate the requisite passional movement. In order to clarify the teleological nature of human life, Kierkegaard drew on the vocabulary and thought patterns of the popular philosophical anthropologies of his day.
