A companion piece to "The Concept of Anxiety," this work
continues Soren 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.
In "The Sickness unto Death," 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."
