Fear and trembling
Book • 1939
Søren Kierkegaard's 'Fear and Trembling' is a philosophical exploration of faith and the ethical dilemmas it presents.
The work centers on the biblical story of Abraham and Isaac, examining the conflict between ethical demands and religious faith.
Kierkegaard argues that true faith requires a leap of faith, a suspension of ethical considerations in favor of absolute commitment to God. The book's profound insights into the nature of faith and the individual's relationship with God have had a lasting impact on religious thought and existentialism.
Kierkegaard's work challenges readers to confront the complexities of faith and to grapple with the ultimate questions of existence.
