Fear And Trembling (Penguin Classics) By Soren Kierkegaard

Fear and Trembling is Soren Kierkegaard’s seminal work on faith, ethics, and the paradox of religious devotion. Written under the pseudonym Johannes de silentio, the book delves into the biblical story of Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son Isaac, exploring the concept of the “teleological suspension of the ethical.” Kierkegaard examines the tension between universal moral principles and individual religious duty, challenging readers to confront the complexities of faith and personal commitment. This edition, translated by Alastair Hannay, includes an introduction and notes that provide context to Kierkegaard’s profound and often controversial ideas.
