Description
The Sickness unto Death: A New Translation by Soren Kierkegaard This seminal work of existential philosophy explores the nature of despair and its profound impact on the human soul. First published in 1849, it remains a foundational text in the history of theology and moral philosophy. Kierkegaard's inquiry into the "sickness unto death" - a condition not of the body, but of the spirit - is presented as a dramatic medical history that culminates in a crisis or turning point. The author's masterful translation brings this complex and thought-provoking work to life, offering a trenchant and explosive exploration of the human condition. Hardcover, 224 pages.
