Jim, you may already be aware of this, but John Tanner's book _Anxiety
in Eden_ reads PL alongside Kierkegaard's _The Concept of Anxiety_.
Tanner operates under the assumption that Kierkegaard didn't know PL
(no evidence in the papers, etc.), but he manages to make an
interesting (if not entirely unproblematic) argument nonetheless. But
perhaps "vores Skandinaviske venner" could provide some more insight
on this front.

The purpose of poetry is to remind us
how difficult it is to remain just one person,
for our house is open, there are no keys in the doors,
and invisible guests come in and out at will.
—Czeslaw Milosz, from "Ars Poetica?"
