The Courage to Be
Book • 1952
This book, based on Tillich's Terry Foundation lectures at Yale University, discusses the concept of courage in various philosophical and theological contexts.
It presents courage as the strength to affirm one's own life in spite of its inevitable end and the lack of purpose.
Tillich analyzes courage in relation to fortitude, wisdom, self-affirmation, and existence itself, drawing on thinkers such as Plato, Aquinas, the Stoics, Spinoza, and Nietzsche.
The book is a sophisticated discussion of human ontology, anthropology, and theology, introducing these concepts to a lay readership.
