| Summary: | At first time, the aim of this article is to identify the essential connection between the kierkegaardian concept of sickness unto death and a general concept of suicide, that reveals especially Kierkegaard’s interest in reflecting on the experience of self-destruction. As second and last resort, it expects to explain that the criticism of the concept of sickness unto death to said general concept of suicide, according Kierkegaard, doesn’t concentrate on cataloging as weak the evasion of human suffering, neither is born of experimental eschatologies after the death of the body; in fact, the critique is developed starting from the problem that supposes a “personal decision” and a polemic proposal about “authentic suicide”. |
