Emmanuel Falque explores the Kierkegaardian phenomenology of dizziness, where despair is radicalized as a constitutive element of human existence. Analyzing the transition from Pascalian disorientation to Kierkegaardian dizziness, Falque examines how the decision of the infinite transforms finitude. He distinguishes between trauma as an extra-phenomenal event and sin as an anti-phenomenon. Ultimately, Falque argues that salvation destroys the possibility of despair, enabling the possibility of the impossible.
