330 .. $a "John Updike once wrote that many of his works are "illustrations of Kierkegaard,"
and yet no current study provides an extended, convincing reason why this is so, why
Updike came to live by Søren Kierkegaard's ideas. This study does, telling the story
of Updike's life-altering encounter with Fear and Trembling in his early career, and
tracing the subsequent evolution of Updike's complex and coherent theology. Examining
Updike's many claims about Kierkegaard's life and work, and casting those claims into
debate with Kierkegaard's best scholars and critics, this book explains why Kierkegaard
and his intellectual inheritors Karl Barth and Miguel de Unamuno provided Updike with
a reason to live, and a vocation as an antinomian Christian writer. The study pursues
the same question Updike did: how are identity and action bound up with faith in God?
The eighteen intensely autobiographical Maples stories, chapters in the tale of a
twenty-two-year marriage that begins hopefully but ends in divorce, epitomize the
theological preoccupations Updike learned from Kierkegaard--becoming an authentic
self and learning to love the neighbor creatively rather than compulsively."--Publisher's
