Søren Kierkegaard’s (1813-1855) view that “truth is subjectivity” is not to be confused with relativism, which is the view that something is true because one believes it. Instead,subjective truth is the view that only the subject, in “passionate inwardness,” can commit to the truth; that is, one can only relate to truth subjectively.
