L'esempio etico tra ammirazione e sequela : quattro figure kierkegaardiane
134-147 p.
- This article focuses on what the author considers the four central figures of Kierkegaard's exemplarism: Abraham, the merman, Christ and Mary Magdalene (1) In Fear and Trembling, Abraham is the supreme model of an ethics of the single individual superior to the ethics of the universal law As the father of faith, Abraham must be imitated However, the author claims that Abraham cannot be imitated, since there is a qualitative difference between Abraham and us: because of sin, we are not able to be righteous and justified as Abraham is (2) In the same work, Kierkegaard introduces a figure taken from a traditional ballad, the merman Much more than the riÂÂ ghteous Abraham, the merman becomes the ethical example for the human being to identify with in her/his longing for love and new life (3) Training in Christianity presents Kierkegaard's most mature formulation of an exemplarist ethics Christ's life is interpreted as the truth that human beings must imitate.
- However, no one can become like Christ According to Kierkegaard, Christ is heterogeneous to all individual human beings, since he is the only one who can forgive sins (4) Kierkegaard devotes three religious discourses to Mary Magdalene Unlike the unattainable ethical example of Christ, Mary Magdalene is the attainable ethical example that imitates the unattainable example According to Kierkegaard, she becomes indispensable to Christ More than with Abraham, father of faith, Kierkegaard's exemplarism culminates with Mary Magdalene, mother of faith [Publisher's text].
