Description: PHILOSOPHICAL FRAGMENTS, 2nd Ed., - Sören Kierkegaard (1962 Hardcover) "Philosophical Fragments" by Søren Kierkegaard, first published in 1844 and first translated into English in 1936, is a Christian philosophical work written under the pseudonym Johannes Climacus. The book explores the nature of truth and the concept of faith. Kierkegaard contrasts the "learned world" with the "Christian world," arguing that true knowledge comes from a personal relationship with God rather than intellectual speculation. He introduces the idea of the "leap of faith," suggesting that faith requires a subjective, passionate commitment that goes beyond rational understanding. The book is a profound reflection on the limitations of human reason and the necessity of faith in achieving true understanding. The 1962 2nd edition, published by Princeton University Press, is notable for its translation and editorial work by David F. Swenson and Howard V. Hong. This edition includes a comprehensive introduction and annotations that provide valuable context and interpretation for modern readers. It's considered a significant contribution to the study of Kierkegaard's philosophy. FREE SHIPPING TO DOMESTIC ADDRESSES! PRIORITY MAIL available for speedy delivery!
