I was reading through the last few entries of this blog, and I realized that I just reread Sickness Unto Death as part of my PhD requirements. It's still a great book, but it makes better sense with Works of Love in mind. Basically, SUD explains the relationship between self, other, and God as a fundamental constitution of the person. WL, in turn, explains how such a self would express itself in ... works of love in this world. Central to both accounts is God's role as the ultimate arbiter of true and false.
