In regards to discussion about "teleological suspension of the ethical", first mentioned by Søren Kierkegaard, this master’s thesis will explore what exactly is the reason of the suspension. In addition to exploring how it's viewed by Kierkegaard, it will also be explored how the suspension is addressed in the works of Charles Taylor and Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche. This thesis assumes that the “suspension of the ethical” indeed is present in the thought of all the authors, and that it occurs in the name of an ideal, which is viewed differently by all three. Therefore, this paper attempts to give a contribution to the philosophical apprehension about authenticity, through this ethical syntagm of suspension. Kierkegaard`s faith, Nietzsche`s superman and Taylor`s being true to myself will be elaborated through the prism of the authentic existence. The master's thesis will be divided into the three chapters. Each chapter will analyse the ethical perspectives of the three philosophers individually and in more details. Furthermore, those chapters will include the analysis of the common grounds between Kierkegaard, Taylor and Nietzsche, as well the wider philosophical perspectives of the three philosophers, due to the inherently importance of the context which is essential to effectively understand the philosophers' standpoints.
