Synopsis
"The Grateful Dead and Philosophy" contains essays from 20 professional philosophers whose love of the Dead's music and scene have led them to reflect on different philosophical questions that have arisen from the enigma that is the Grateful Dead. Coming at the Dead from a variety of perspectives, ancient and modern, Eastern and Western, this book considers how the group fits into the broader trends of American thought running through pragmatism and the Beat poets. There's a pertinent analysis of how the parking lot scene with its tie-dyed t-shirt and veggie burrito vendors was both a rejection and embrace of capitalism, and much more. The lyrics of the Grateful Dead's many songs are also the basis for several essays considering questions of fate and freedom, the nature-nurture debate, and gamblers' ethics., The Grateful Dead and Philosophy contains essays from 20 professional philosophers whose love of the Dead's music and scene have led them to reflect on different philosophical questions that have arisen from the enigma that is the Grateful Dead.

- s***- (235)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe cd arrived on time and in excellent condition. The quality of the recording is super for a live show and the playing is amazing. Fans of Duane Allman should check out John Stachela's slide guitar. He is technically gifted and a true artist in his own right, not just a copycat. But he has clearly studied, not only Duane's style, but his unique tone as well. All ABB covers, but no more a "tribute" than any of the "Instant Live" recordings. A great value and a "must have".
