According to author. I don't really know much about dogs. Nevertheless, will and faith are not the same thing.

Are you seriously suggesting Diogenes the Dog was a Knight of Faith?

But knight of faith doesn't have to mean V first; there isn't a correlation. Abraham you have both typed FVEL, you have Diogenes as 3V and Mary as EVFL (whether they are right or wrong), all who are knights of faith.

Your ignoring the fact that Kierkegaard, by his own admission, was not the knight of faith. He could never fully be comfortable taking the reigns of his own life. He was constantly wracked with self doubt and anxiety. He idolized V 1sts, but he was far from one of them.

Oh yeah and there's a big difference between the lives of Kierkegaard and Nietzsche (for example). Nietzsche, despite his hero-worshiping and valuing of strength, was a weak man who was easily shaken by perceived slights. Kierkegaard sought to make himself the gadfly of Copenhagen: the lone man willing to broach difficult questions and directly confront the status quo, in his case being the Church of Denmark. His long war of polemics with various enemies should be enough to show that he was willing to become a target of others and sacrifice his social life.

There's bits of my argument on Kierkegaard being VELF on the Schopenhauer page. I'll concede that Afanasyev was not always accurate in his typings, but I can tell he put thought into them and made sure to read into the lives of the people he was typing. I imagine the primary reason for seeing Kierkegaard as a 3V is because themes of anxiety and uncertainty were so prominent in his writings, but think about how Kierkegaard actually treats them. Instead of viewing anxiety or angst as a wholly negative experience to be avoided, he views it as something necessary for salvation. For him, it's the feeling of complete freedom of choice. What Kierkegaard views as the function that brings on anxiety is important too: spirit, which is a synthesis of the mental and physical (and which Afanasyev equates to will).
Looking back, I find it ironic that tman wrote that a 1V person is someone who stands their ground and takes control of their own life, because this is basically what the knight of faith is: when presented with an absurd moral task, the knight of faith accepts it without hesitation and carries it out to both the letter and the spirit; because he believes that, by grace of the absurd, what he lost in the act would be returned to him in the end. If that's not a depiction of 1V3L in action, I don't know what is.

I completely understand the ELVF votes, but isn't Jacobus (as always with psycosophy) right that he was a VELF? He was primarily concerned with being an outsider and an individual (1V), that had sympathy for other outsiders (2E), was famously skeptical of the crowd (3L), and last F is what is left.

And on that Russian website the profile for Akhmatova begins with "If you try to pass a sentence for life internal state "Akhmatova", it is best to confine ourselves to quote from a poem by Alexander Blok, where he talks about his father inherent "heavy flame of sorrow" .Indeed, it is - "Akhmatova's" sorrow - from the 4th Physics , flame - from the 2nd Emotion, the heaviness of the flame - from the 1st Will." Which is similar to Kierkegaard's many "“Since my earliest childhood a barb of sorrow has lodged in my heart. As long as it stays I am ironic — if it is pulled out I shall die.”, "“My melancholy is the most faithful mistress I have known; what wonder, then, that I love her in return.”" quotes.
