Document Summary

Know kierkegaard"s various compelling, poetic images: knights, princesses, dancers, tragic heroes, movements, double movements, inwardness, commitment, despair, silence, etc. (professor frost"s drum roll analogy in comparison to the knight of faith: dancer, most humans sit out from the dance, in disheartened lives of earthly sorrow and joy, when knights of infinity come down from a leap, they waver, showing that they"re strangers in the world. Smooth transition from double strokes to buzz strokes in a drum roll: silence, only knights of infinite faith can understand eachother, tragic heroes, are mourned for their actions, because they"ve done them for the good of the people, double movement, abraham doesn"t have this same purpose, so he isn"t mourned, knight of infinite resignation makes the movement to sacrifice isaac.
