<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A companion piece to <i>The Concept of Anxiety</i>, this work continues Søren Kierkegaard's radical and comprehensive analysis of human nature in a spectrum of possibilities of existence. Present here is a remarkable combination of the insight of the poet and the contemplation of the philosopher. <p/><br> In <i>The Sickness unto Death</i>, Kierkegaard moves beyond anxiety on the mental-emotional level to the spiritual level, where--in contact with the eternal--anxiety becomes despair. Both anxiety and despair reflect the misrelation that arises in the self when the elements of the synthesis--the infinite and the finite--do not come into proper relation to each other. Despair is a deeper expression for anxiety and is a mark of the eternal, which is intended to penetrate temporal existence.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The definitive edition of the <i>Writings</i>. The first volume . . . indicates the scholarly value of the entire series: an introduction setting the work in the context of Kierkegaard's development; a remarkably clear translation; and concluding sections of intelligent notes.-- "Library Journal"<br>
