The Simpsons and Philosophy is an entertaining and even edifying look at the most successful and influential cartoon on television. These essays on the silly, absurd, hyper-ironic, strange world that is Springfield -- the town without a state -- are also a quick dip into philosophy. Is Bart an American pragmatist? Why is Mr. Burn's quest for happiness continually frustrated? The contributors discuss the thoughts of key philosophers including Aristotle, Marx, Camus, Sartre, Heidegger, and Kant and tackle issues like irony and the meaning of life, American anti-intellectualism, and existential rebellion. The volume also includes an episode guide and a chronology of philosophers which gives the names and dates of the major thinkers in the history of philosophy, accompanied by a representative quote from each. Contributors: David L.G. Arnold, Daniel Barwick, Eric Bronson, Paul A. Cantor, Mark T. Conard, Gerald J. Erion, Raja Halwani, Jason Holt, William Irwin, Kelley Dean Jolley, Deborah Knight, James Lawler, J.R. Lombardo, Carl Matheson, Jennifer L. McMahon, Aeon J. Skoble, Dale E. and James J. Snow, David Vessey, James J. Wallace, and Joseph A. Zeccardi
