Features: Lilies in the Field and Birds in the Sky is Kierkegaard's reflective lecture on religious life, which led him to become a genuine Christian who refused to teach. He repeatedly extracts passages from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount—about the lilies in the field who toil not and spin not, and the birds of the sky who reap not and gather not—and uses these parables as concluding words. The Crisis in the Life of an Actress is a typical Kierkegaardian aesthetic essay, where he discusses the youthful, accidental, and transient things versus the mature, eternal, and essential things.
