Inhaltsangabe

First published in 1843, Fear and Trembling by Søren Kierkegaard is a central text in existential philosophy, Christian ethics and nineteenth century theological thought. The book uses the biblical story of Abraham and Isaac to examine faith, duty, sacrifice, moral reasoning and the limits of universal ethics. Readers of existentialism, philosophy of religion, ethics, theology and classic European thought will find this work indispensable.

Kierkegaard explores the concept of the knight of faith, the tension between the ethical and the absolute, the idea of the teleological suspension of the ethical, and the paradox of an individual placed higher than universal moral law. The book investigates fear, anxiety, obedience, divine command, inwardness and the difficulty of authentic faith. Its rigorous analysis makes it essential for anyone studying existential philosophy, moral philosophy, Christian theology or Kierkegaard’s wider authorship.

This edition is suited to readers seeking a foundational work on faith, ethics and existential thought. It appeals to students of Philosophy, Religious Studies, Christian Existentialism, nineteenth century literature, and the development of modern conceptions of subjectivity, morality and inward commitment. Now available in Kindle, Paperback and Hardback, it offers a complete range of formats for study, annotation and long term reference.
