Paper Summary:
In this article, the writer discusses two passages, from Nietzsche's 'The Gay Science' and Kierkegaard's 'Fear and Trembling', one can see two modern philosophers exploring the relationship between mankind and the divine in the modern context. This essay argues the thesis that while both works differ in their conception of this relationship - with Nietzsche rejecting the need for a divinity while Kierkegaard advocates its necessity in our lives - their complex reinterpretations of this connection reflects the modern ambivalence with regard to mankind's relationship with God.More papers on Nietzsche and Kierkegaard:
