Kierkegaard´s „Fera and Trembling“ analyse the biblical figure of Abraham, who was supposed to sacrifice his son Isaac, an act he calls „ a knight of faith´s conduct“.

We have borrowed the concept and applied it to two novels: Troje paměti Víta Choráze by Julius Zeyer and Hécate by Pierre Jean Jouve. Both transform this concept but show this knight of faith according to the attributes as well.
