Manuscript of "The Sickness Unto Death"

Following the Corsair affair, Kierkegaard directed his attention towards his Christian writings and completed a number of his religious works. From this manuscript of The Sickness Unto Death it is evident that the book was originally intended for publication under Søren Kierkegaard’s own name, but he decided instead to use the pseudonym “Anti-Clima¬cus”, with himself as the publisher.
