    Synopsis

    One of the most important philosophical texts of all time, Fear and Trembling explores through the story of Abraham and his willing sacrifice of his son Isaac many of Kierkegaard's major philosophical and religious concepts, including Kierkegaard's ideas regarding the "leap of faith," and the need to continually re-experience belief. The late Robert Payne's translation, originally published by Oxford University Press in the 1930s, is printed in the US for the first time in this edition.

    Library Journal

    This year's crop of Penguin "Great Ideas" volumes offers another eclectic dozen works that shaped society from the ancient Greeks to the 20th century. The books are fairly no frills, but the price isn't bad. Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
