Published in 1843 under the pseudonym Johannes de silentio (John of the Silence), the title is a reference to a line from Philippians 2:12, “…continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling.” — itself a probable reference to Psalms 55:5, “Fear and trembling came upon me…”.
From the perspective of an unbeliever, Fear and Trembling explores the paradox of faith, the nature of Christianity, and the complexity of human emotion. Kierkegaard examines the biblical story of Abraham, who was instructed to sacrifice his son Isaac, and forces us to consider Abraham’s state of mind. What drove Abraham, and what made him carry out such an absurd and extreme request from God? Kierkegaard argues that Abraham’s agreement to sacrifice Isaac, and his suspension of reason, elevated him to the highest level of faith. He explores more comprehensible alternatives, but in each one Abraham fails the test of faith, thus showing that true faith cannot be explained, understood, or made rational.
His thesis is a compelling counterpoint to Hegel, who maintained that reason was the highest form of thought, and it proved a significant source of inspiration to later existentialist philosophers such as Camus and Sartre.

There seems to be an issue (at least on my end) where the file is missing about two hours of the book when it gets imported to iTunes.

@DanielGlad: Not my rip. The book is complete but scrubbing is a bit of an issue, as is reading metadata. I converted it to M4B and now iTunes shows the complete length. Here you go - https://www108.zippyshare.com/v/lNMCMW7B/file.html
In future, please check on another mediaplayer. It seems fine on VLC.
