The Sickness Unto Death: A Christian Psychological Exposition for Upbuilding and Awakening

by Howard Vincent Hong, Edna Hatlestad Hong, Søren Kierkegaard
RM44.48 MYR
The Sickness Unto Death: A Christian Psychological Exposition for Upbuilding and Awakening
The Sickness Unto Death: A Christian Psychological Exposition for Upbuilding and Awakening

Exploring despair's depths through poetic philosophy.

If you find yourself drawn to the existential questions that keep philosophers awake at night, Kierkegaard's "The Sickness Unto Death" may resonate with you deeply. It's not just about the dreariness of despair, but the journey towards self-realization and the eternal struggle between the finite and infinite within us. The dense, yet profound text offers a chance to explore your own self in relation to the divine, and could be a stepping stone to a greater understanding of your existence.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

A companion piece to The Concept of Anxiety, this work continues Søren Kierkegaard’s radical and comprehensive analysis of human nature in a spectrum of possibilities of existence. Present here is a remarkable combination of the insight of the poet and the contemplation of the philosopher. In The Sickness unto Death, Kierkegaard moves beyond anxiety on the mental-emotional level to the spiritual level, where — in contact with the eternal — anxiety becomes despair. Both anxiety and despair reflect the misrelation that arises in the self when the elements of the synthesis — the infinite and the finite — do not come into proper relation to each other. Despair is a deeper expression for anxiety and is a mark of the eternal, which is intended to penetrate temporal existence.
