Synopsis
The Sickness Unto Death (Danish Sygdommen til Døden) is a book written by Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard in 1849 under the pseudonym Anti-Climacus. It is about Kierkegaard's concept of despair, which he equates with the Christian concept of sin, particularly original sin. Anti-climacus introduces the book with a reference to Gospel of John 11.4: "This sickness is not unto death. " This quotation comes from the story of Lazarus, in which Jesus raises a man from the dead.
