FEAR AND TREMBLING (Translation) (Penguin Classics) by Soren Kierkegaard

In Fear and Trembling, Soren Kierkegaard offers a provocative exploration of faith and sacrifice that has left a significant mark on philosophy and theology.

Writing under the pseudonym "Johannes de Silentio," Soren Kierkegaard examines the Biblical story of Abraham and Isaac to argue for a radical leap of faith that transcends conventional morality.

Fear and Trembling challenges contemporary philosophical systems, including Hegel's moral universalism, and has deeply influenced both existentialist thinkers and Protestant theology. This edition includes an introduction by Alastair Hannay, which contextualizes Soren Kierkegaard's fear and trembling work and its impact on the field of philosophy.
