[EAN: 9780061713279], Neubuch, [PU: Harper Perennial Modern Classics], PHILOSOPHY / HISTORY & SURVEYS GENERAL; BOOKS ON DISTINCTIONS; EROTIC LOVES; FRUITS, nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The various kinds and conditions of love are a common theme for Kierkegaard, beginning with his early Either/Or, through 'The Diary of the Seducer' and Judge William's eulogy on married love, to his last work, on the changelessness of God's love. Works of Love, the midpoint in the series, is also the monumental high point, because of its penetrating, illuminating analysis of the forms and sources of love. Love as feeling and mood is distinguished from works of love, love of the lovable from love of the unlovely, preferential love from love as the royal law, love as mutual egotism from triangular love, and erotic love from self-giving love. This work is marked by Kierkegaard's Socratic awareness of the reader, both as the center of awakened understanding and as the initiator of action. Written to be read aloud, this book conveys a keenness of thought and an insightful, poetic imagination that make such an attentive approach richly rewarding. Works of Love not only serves as an excellent place to begin exploring the writings of Kierkegaard but also rewards many rereadings. 400 pp. Englisch, Books<

One of Kierkegaard's central writings, "Works of Love" is a profound and indispensable examination of the human heart. 'Deep within every man', Kierkegaard writes, 'there lies the dread of being alone in the world, forgotten by God, overlooked among the household of millions upon millions'. Love, for Kierkegaard, is one of the central aspects of existence; it saves us from isolation and unites us to each other and God. This new edition of "Works of Love" features an original introduction by Oxford theologian George Pattison.
