Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The legions of Bob Dylan fans know that Dylan is not just a great composer, writer, and performer, but a great thinker as well. In Bob Dylan and Philosophy, eighteen philosophers analyze Dylans ethical positions, political commitments, views on gender and sexuality, and his complicated and controversial attitudes toward religion. All phases of Dylans output are covered, from his early acoustic folk ballads and anthem-like protest songs to his controversial switch to electric guitar to his sometimes puzzling, often profound music of the 1970s and beyond. The book examines different aspects of Dylans creative thought through a philosophical lens, including personal identity, negative and positive freedom, enlightenment and postmodernism in his social criticism, and the morality of bootlegging. An engaging introduction to deep philosophical truths, the book provides Dylan fans with an opportunity to learn about philosophy while impressing fans of philosophy with the deeper implications of his intellectual achievements. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Soft cover. Zustand: As New. First printing 2006. 205pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "The troubador who has given English more phrases than any poet since Shakespeare has also warned us that 'Counterfeit philosophies have polluted all of your thoughts.' So here's the genuine article: pure philosophy applied to the provocative, mercurial thoughts of Bob Dylan. [] If a killer is only a pawn in their game, is he relieved of all moral responsibility? If to live outside the law you must be honest, is freedom more of a burden than conformity? Is it morally defensible to bootleg Dylan recordings? [] As well as scrutinizing such philosophical issues raised by Dylan's poetry, BOB DYLAN AND PHILOSOPHY also probes some puzzles about Dylan's own life and ideas. Has Dylan's thinking moved from Enlightenment social protest to postmodernist paralysis? Was Dylan's born-again experience a break or a continuation in his vision of the world? And who is Dylan when he doesn't have his Bob Dylan mask on for Halloween?" [publisher copy] "Sometimes a song is just a song. Sometimes it's a vision of life. Read this book. Do think twice, it's all right."--Alan Cheuse. "Dylan's work persistently re-examines some of the oldest and newest philosophical questions. The authors of this book do not treat him as a mysterious fount of wisdom but as a participant in a philosophical colloquy ranging across space and time. They respect him as an artist and address his work with the knowledge and rigor it deserves."--Mike Marqusee. "Who better to elucidate that quality of the Dylan canon that sets it apart from the bulk of popular music--its ability to stir the mind--than those professional thinkers hidden away in university philosophy departments? This witty, thought-provoking collection will be enjoyed by fans of Dylan and Derrida alike."--Michael J. Gilmour. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine, cover featuring Milton Glaser's famous Dylan poster. Quite philosophically presentable.
