Fear and Trembling
by Søren Kierkegaard
Fear and Trembling by Søren Kierkegaard
Kierkegaard's reflections on Abraham probe the unsettling relationship between faith, ethics, and individual commitment. Kierkegaard revisits the story of Abraham to examine faith, ethical obligation, and the limits of public explanation. Written under a pseudonym, the work makes certainty difficult rather than offering a straightforward religious lesson. Its thought experiments explore the anxiety and paradox involved when an individual's commitment cannot be justified through ordinary moral language.
