Johannes De Silentio

Fear and Trembling Johannes De Silentio

Regarded as the father of Existentialism, Søren Kierkegaard transformed philosophy with his conviction that we must all create our own nature. In Fear and Trembling he argues that a true understanding of God can only be attained by making a personal 'leap of faith.' This revised edition of the standard English translation of Fear and Trembling updates some of the more archaic language and presents this landmark philosophical work in modern American English.
