ABSTRACT
Cèlia Amorós' line of analysis and research is inscribed into the so-called "equality feminism", an heir to the revolutionary ideals of modernity specifically in the context of the emancipation of women as a measure of all freedom. Amorós' thesis has that text consists of a historical introduction followed by four chapters which attempt to deconstruct the symbolic cores of patriarchal rationality supporting Kierkegaardian thought. The thesis first approaches the relation/dis-relation between Kierkegaard and Regine Olsen, assumed by Amorós as the foundational myth of Kierkegaardian thought, based on sacrifice and death, in this case the sacrifice and death of Regine. It discusses the figures of Don Juan-seduction and Abraham-sacrifice—as the two great mythemes of the Kierkegaardian symbolic, whose common denominators are anxiety and death, because "seduction is conceived in a recurrent way as a sort of sacrifice". The last chapter ends in the paradox of Kierkegaardian thought, that is just one of the many paradoxes of patriarchal reason itself, in other words its self-denial.
