內容簡介
內容簡介 Unveil the depths of despair, selfhood, and faith in a transformative exploration by renowned philosopher S ren Kierkegaard. What does it truly mean to be a self? First published in 1849, The Sickness Unto Death by S ren Kierkegaard remains one of the most profound explorations of identity, despair, and the human condition. Yet for many modern readers, its depth is often hidden behind complex and outdated language. This modern translation brings Kierkegaard's powerful ideas into clear, accessible English - making his insights on the self, faith, and inner struggle more relevant than ever. At its core, Kierkegaard argues that despair is not simply an emotion, but a condition of the self - a misrelation within one's own being. This book invites readers to confront questions that are as urgent today as they were in the 19th century: - What does it mean to truly become yourself? - Why do we feel inwardly divided, even when life seems stable? - What is the relationship between despair, identity, and faith? In this modern translation, you will: ✔ Understand Kierkegaard's concept of the self in clear language ✔ Explore the deeper meaning of despair and inner conflict ✔ Discover how faith relates to identity and purpose ✔ Engage with philosophy that speaks directly to modern life Ideal for students, thinkers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the human condition, this edition makes one of philosophy's most important works both accessible and meaningful.
