The Concept of Anxiety in Soren Kierkegaard (Mercer Kierkegaard)
by Arne Gron
This is a Danish classic available in translation. From the preface: ""The Concept of Anxiety"" is one of Kierkegaard's major works. It summarizes and anticipates themes that are developed in his other works, but not by presenting a unified perception. It has more the character of a work that constitutes a turning point: themes from earlier works (in particular Either/Or) are pursued in a broken way that gives a new starting point for later works. Even though ""The Concept of Anxiety"" is often...

Crumbley investigates the beliefs and practices associated with institutionalized female roles in three o...
The Scriptural Idea of Man; Six Lectures Given Before the Theological Students at Princeton on the L. P. Stone Foundation
by Mark Hopkins
In The Christian Idea of Man Josef Pieper brings off an extraordinary feat. He acknowledges that whoever introduces the theme of "virtue" and "the virtues" can expect to be met with a smile - of various shades of condescension. He then proceeds to single out "prudence" as the fundamental virtue on which the other cardinal virtues are based. In defining it, he does away with the shallow connotations which have debased it in modern times. Similarly, he manages to divest it of all traces of "morali...
