One trajectory emphasizes free human striving, while the other emphasizes the dominance of divine agency. The first theme led to the view of Kierkegaard as a champion of autonomous existential \"leaps,\" while the second led to the construal of Kierkegaard as a devout Lutheran who trusted absolutely in God's gracious governance. Lee C. Barrett argues that Kierkegaard, influenced by Kant's critique of metaphysics, did not attempt to integrate human and divine agencies in any speculative theory. Instead, Kierkegaard deploys them to encourage different passions and dispositions that can be integrated into a coherent human life, using literary strategies to foster the different passions and dispositions associated with the themes of human responsibility and divine governance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKierkegaard on Gods Will and Human Freedom: An Upbuilding Antinomy offers an insightful analysis of what makes Kierkegaard's conception of theology as a matter of edification rather than speculation so distinctive and enduringly worthwhile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781666914924\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lee C., III Barrett","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44922207371514,"sku":"9781666914924","price":87.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_154f73f8-394f-4c49-8d21-a7ebf2fdb2bb.jpg?v=1703409415","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/kierkegaard-on-gods-will-and-human-freedom-an-upbuilding-antinomy-9781666914924","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
