Review # 1 was written on 2013-05-30 00:00:00 Bruno Sakowicz Useful introductory roadmap for Kierkegaard's extremely difficult to interpret _Fear and Trembling_. Covers each section in turn as well as some important topics (What is F&T all about? Is de Silentio an unreliable narrator?). Lippitt provides arguments for his own interpretations but also provides a helpful map of the most important alternatives in the literature so that the reader has an idea of what the options are and where to look to examine them further. There are some topics that I think should receive more attention (such as unconditional commitment / infinite passion) but overall very helpful.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-03-31 00:00:00 James Schoonover Someone commented about Chapter 10 (the call to action). I think this chapter should have appeared at the very end. The ironic thing about the people who want to tear down the wall between church and state is that if the wall didn't exist in the first place, they'd be unable to voice their beliefs.
