Use of the capital letter in English. 02:40 Aug 14, 2010
The German language uses as a matter of course the capital (first) letter for the abstract substantives "Leidenschafft" and "Innerlichen". In the English language, Kierkegaard's idea, at least to my mind, takes on the special signification of the Transcendant and the Numinous. For me Kierkegaard would have plumped for Passion of Inwardness as opposed to plain-old passion of inwardness. It certainly appears less clumsy when we give the phrase it,s full set of wings!..capital letters only please when denoting the divine "ich und Du" vectors of Revelation! Ultimately perhaps this facet of style will depend on the convictions of the translator and his target audience or client. |
