Malcolm Muggeridge
Orbis Books
, 2004
So Much in So Few Pages
That's the value of this classic. It gives you a sophisticated introduction to several great thinkers and prophets who searched for God. Muggeridge was, as others have noted, himself a prophet of the madness of his century and the twenty-first century. Here we have the ...
Fear and Trembling/Repetition : Kierkegaard's Writings, Vol. 6
Soren Kierkegaard
Princeton University Press
, 1983
Theological Tour de Force
This edition of 'Fear and Trembling' is an excellently produced and translated edition, with the interesting and helpful prefaces and selections of journal quotes typical of the Writings series. 'Fear and Trembling' presents a very penetrating, and ultimately ...
A Kierkegaard Anthology
Soren Kierkegaard
Princeton University Press
, 1973
The Best Place To Start Reading Kierkegaard
Many consider it objectionable (probably Kierkegaard among them!) to chop up philosophical works so literary in style into pieces to be patched together in an anthology. Others would note that a philosopher is best introduced through a painstaking reading of a classic ...
Either/Or: A Fragment of Life (Penguin Classics)
Soren Kierkegaard
Penguin Classics
, 1992
Very Good
I must admit that I have not completed this book yet. But, what I have read is the most wonderful work of all time. It is philosophy that reads as fiction and fiction that reads as genius. An undergrad like me cannot do it justice in a review. So, I will let it ...
Fear and Trembling
Soren Kierkegaard
Wilder Publications
, 2008
Fear and Trembling
Faith, it goes without saying, is a personal thing. It is a private aspect of a person's life that may, if they wish, become public, though there is no real need for this to occur. Faith is something that cannot be explained - certainly not to the satisfaction of an ...
The Essential Kierkegaard
Soren Kierkegaard
Princeton University Press
, 2000
The Master of Irony
Søren Kierkegaard is undoubtedly the comedian's philosopher. And his humor is fundamentally reassuring - hilarious, even biting, but never bitter or nihilistic. He is one of the major influences on the films and writings of Woody Allen. Often Kierkegaard is rumored ...
The Sickness Unto Death: A Christian Psychological Exposition For Upbuilding And Awakening (Kierkegaard's ...
Soren Kierkegaard
Princeton University Press
, 1983
The Best
This is hands down the greatest book I have ever read, not including the Bible. I say that as a Christian and as an individual. I can understand how some choose to apply the concepts without the religion, but I personally think this would have infuriated SK. Again, ...
Existentialism For Dummies (For Dummies (Religion & Spirituality))
Christopher Panza
,
Gregory Gale
For Dummies
, 2008
An Excellent Introduction
Chris Panza is an old philosophy professor of mine, so I was able to review this material before publication. Since authenticity is nowhere more important than in a review on existentialism, I make that disclosure up front. Thankfully, I can attest that the book serves ...
Provocations: Spiritual Writings of Kierkegaard
Soren Kierkegaard
Orbis Books
, 2003
"By acting your life will come into collision with existence...
...and then you will know the reality of grace." p 254 Kierkegaard is too good to miss. Unfortunately his writings were so copious and obscured under the cloak of pseudonyms that many people give up before they begin to mine the riches of his work. Moore has ...
The Seducer's Diary (Penguin Great Loves)
Soren Kierkegaard
Penguin (Non-Classics)
, 2007
Where's the wiseman,that wouldnot be I,if she wouldnot deny
This was truly, an amazing read! The words that will be written here, can never begin to tell the complexity of this story. Soren tells, of seductive love, and loss of, through Johannes and Cordelia. Was Kierkegaard a scheming madman, or simply a fool... The story is ...
The Concept of Anxiety : Kierkegaard's Writings, Vol 8
Soren Kierkegaard
,
Albert B. Anderson
Princeton University Press
, 1981
Essential Kierkegaard
_The Concept of Anxiety_ is one of Kierkegaard's most straightforward, honest, and personal works. Primarily, it deals with the typical human understanding of sin, why we designate certain acts as sinful, and how our perception or experience of these acts is altered ...
Purity of Heart Is to Will One Thing
Soren Kierkegaard
Wilder Publications
, 2008
woody allen?
I'm dumbfounded that "rob" compared Kierkegaard with Woody Allen. Purity of Heart is all about the purpose and MEANING of existence. It's about reconciliation to the eternal. Woody Allen has no knowledge of the eternal. He's a silly little pundit using philosophy as a ...
Either/Or 1: Kierkegaard's Writings, Vol. 3
Soren Kierkegaard
Princeton University Press
, 1988
The first book in Kierkegaard's remarkable Authorship
Although Kierkegaard had written other books before this one, mainly some literary critical works as well as his dissertation THE CONCEPT OF IRONY, this is the book that begins what he calls his "Authorship." The works constituting his Authorship have two main things ...
Kierkegaard: Fear and Trembling (Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy)
Cambridge University Press
, 2006
A Stellar Edition
With its muted, textual appearance and the word "Cambridge" hovering on top of the front cover, this edition of Fear and Trembling may scare off prospective readers, who are forgiven if they think, at first glance, this edition is aimed at dedicated specialists. ...
The Metamorphosis
LeClue 22, 2008
One morning, as Gregor Samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that in bed he had been changed into a monstrous verminous bug. He lay on his armour-hard back and saw, as he lifted his head up a little, his brown, arched abdomen divided up into rigid bow-like sections. From this height the blanket, just about ready to slide off ...
