Søren Kierkegaard in *Explaining Postmodernism*

In Fear and Trembling, Søren Kierkegaard defends faith by going on the offensive against reason:

“Faith requires the crucifixion of reason.”

For more on the context of Kierkegaard’s irrationalism and its implications for postmodernism, see p. 98 of my Explaining Postmodernism: Skepticism from Rousseau to Foucault.
