In Problema I and II of Fear and Trembling, Kierkegaard argues that our ethical duties
may be suspended in the pursuit of “absolute” (religious) duties. Explain how he arrives
at this conclusion through his analysis of Abraham as a knight of faith, and then offer
commentary on whether you think Abraham was justified in so acting.
Your essay should offer an accurate and nuanced analysis of Abraham’s faith and trial (by,
e.g., analyzing the righteous and ethical interpretations, and/or explaining Abraham’s
paradox of will); your essay should explain why Abraham is not a tragic hero, nor an
aesthetic individual, and should explain and contrast the aesthetic, ethical, and religious
ways of life. Finally, do you agree that there exist “higher” non-ethical duties (religious or
otherwise) that warrant suspending our ethical duties? You may answer this question
through an analysis of Abraham’s sacrifice of Isaac or through another example. In any
case, you should provide an argument (pro or con) whether you think Abraham (or
persons generally) are ever justified in suspending their ethical duties to satisfy non-
ethical commitments. In other words, your thesis should address the following question:
Is the highest goal or purpose of human life to live ethically?
