SOREN KIERKEGAARD FEAR AND TREMBLING Fear and Trembling (in the translations of Dr. Walter Lowrie, with revisions by Dr. Howard Johnson), were called by Kierkegaard himself “the most perfect books I have written.” Fear and Trembling analyzes, with an almost inhuman passion and intesity, the significance, in Kierkegaard’s terms, of the biblical story of the sacrifice of Isaac, and introduces us to a crucial idea for modern existentialism, the “absurd.” A DOUBLEDAY ANCHOR BOOK NEW YORK, 1954 MY WAY YOUR WAY FAITH + OBEDIENCE Soren Kierkegaard (1819-55) is now generally recognized as the greatest religious thinker of the nineteenth century; he remained obscure so long because his violent attack on the efforts of nineteenth- century theologians to “rationalize” religion and link it with progress and sciences was not in harmony with the times; and (probably) because he wrote in Danish. In recent years, almost all his books have been translated into English- and they include brilliant writing on philosophy, aesthetics, ethics, and psychology, as well as works on religion and theology-and he has become the principal source for contemporary existentialist philosophy, whether religious or irreligious.
