The Philosophy of Science Fiction Film
he Philosophy of Popular Culture
he books published in the Philosophy of Popular Culture series will illuminate
and explore philosophical themes and ideas that occur in popular culture. he
goal of this series is to demonstrate how philosophical inquiry has been reinvigo-
rated by increased scholarly interest in the intersection of popular culture and
philosophy, as well as to explore through philosophical analysis beloved modes
of entertainment, such as movies, TV shows, and music. Philosophical con-
cepts will be made accessible to the general reader through examples in popular
culture. his series seeks to publish both established and emerging scholars who
will engage a major area of popular culture for philosophical interpretation and
examine the philosophical underpinnings of its themes. Eschewing ephemeral
trends of philosophical and cultural theory, authors will establish and elaborate
on connections between traditional philosophical ideas from important thinkers
and the ever-expanding world of popular culture.
