The outstanding Danish philosopher and theologian of Sörkegaard (1813-1855) is considered the forerunner of existentialism, in addition, his ideas had a direct impact on the “dialectical theology” of Karl Bart, on philosophical anthropology, personalism and other currents, where the emphasis is transferred to the personal appropriation of a certain truth. The work Disease to Death was published by Kierkegoor in July 1849.
The founding of the thematic, which gave the name of the whole book, is based on the gospel parable about the resurrection of Lazarus. The miracle of Lazarus carries its transparent metaphorical load: the lifelessness, the lifelessness of the dead symbolize here the numbness of the will of a person, stuck in despair, when hope is lost and everything is drowning in the darkness of indifference, cynical emptiness. Salvation from this state of internal self -destruction, decay and death is possible only with the advent of Christ, which should every time reduce the grave stone from the crypt, where the human soul languishes. That is why Kierkegaard is not tired of repeating that despair is a sin, but despair before God is the hope of healing, but the opposite of sin is not virtuous behavior, but faith. Only by leaving a person through all the stages of his earthly existence - up to the threshold of death itself, despair reveals the true nature of the transforming, universal power.
The publication is addressed to teachers and students, theologians, philosophers and culturalists, it will be interested in historians of European culture and religious thought, as well as a wider circle of readers - lovers and true connoisseurs of philosophical essays
