In den Schriften dieses Bandes geht es um eine Frage, die Kierkegaard auch nach dem Zeugnis seiner Tagebücher in diesen Jahren immer auf's Neue durchgrübelt hat: um das Verhältnis von religiöser Forderung und Gnade, von Nachfolge Christi und Vergebungsglaube, von "Gesetz und Evangelium". Kierkegaard zeigt, daß er ein Gottesverhältnis nur im Glauben an die alles umfassende Gnade Gottes für möglich hält. Es ist jedoch sein Ziel, so von der Gnade und dem Glauben zu reden, daß der Stachel der "unendlichen Forderung" und unseres Versagens an ihr sich um so schärfer ins Herz des Lesers drückt; sehr eindrucksvoll ist es da z.B., wie er die Geschichte vom barmherzigen Samariter deutet: sieh den Priester, der den Mißhandelten in seinem Elend liegen läßt, und dann "sollst Du zu Dir selbst sagen: 'Das bin ich.'" Christus und seine Gnade werden hier verstanden und erlebt als eine ständige Unruhe, die zur Verinnerlichung treibt.

James Bradley (1693–1762) was the English astronomer who served as Astronomer Royal from 1742, succeeding Edmund Halley. He is best known for two fundamental discoveries in astronomy, the aberration of light (1725–1728), and the nutation of the Earth's axis (1728–1748). These discoveries were called "the most brilliant and useful of the century" by Jean Baptiste Joseph Delambre, historian of astronomy, mathematical astronomer and director of the Paris Observatory, in his history of astronomy in the 18th century (1821), because "It is to these two discoveries by Bradley that we owe the exactness of modern astronomy. .... This double service assures to their discoverer the most distinguished place (after Hipparchus and Kepler) above the greatest astronomers of all ages and all countries."(Biography from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Bradley)

"In a Grove" is an early modernist short story consisting of seven varying accounts of the murder of a samurai, Kanazawa no Takehiro, whose corpse has been found in a bamboo forest near Kyoto. Each section simultaneously clarifies and obfuscates what the reader knows about the murder, eventually creating a complex and contradictory vision of events that brings into question humanity's ability or willingness to perceive and transmit objective truth. It is the basis for Kurosawa's "Rashoumon."(from Wikipedia)---Note: The original Japanese text version is also available on Feedbooks at http://www.feedbooks.com/book/4204
