Σύνοψη: | The author draws attention to the crucial role that suffering and disability play in the writings of Kierkegaard's "Second Authorship."

He discussed a figure called the "useless sufferer" to argue that any person - no matter his or her capabilities or impairments - can fulfill the requirements of Christianity, the challenge of making one's suffering transparent to the love of God, and loving oneself as one is created to be. |
