On Kierkegaard's Fear & Trembling
Just talking about one of my favorite books of all time as I discuss:
- Kierkegaard's strange authorship
- His stages on life's way — the aesthetic, ethical, religious one, religious two
- Faith as the suspension of the ethical
- The knight of infinite resignation vs the knight of faith
- Kierkegaard's beautiful reading of the story of Abraham and Isaac
