| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Thinking About Stories is a fun and thought-provoking introduction to philosophical questions about narrative fiction in its many forms, from highbrow literature to pulp fiction to the latest shows on Netflix.<br/><br/>Written by philosophers Samuel Lebens and Tatjana von Solodkoff, it engages with fundamental questions about fiction, such as: What is it? What does it give us? Does a story need a narrator? And why do sad stories make us cry if we know they aren’t real? The format of the book emulates a lively, verbal exchange: each chapter has only one author while the other appears spontaneously in dialogues in the text along the way, raising questions and voicing criticisms, and inviting responses from their co-author. This unique format allows readers to feel like they are a part of the conversation about the philosophical foundations of some of the fictions in their own lives.<br/><br/>Key Features<br/><br/>Draws on a wide range of types of narrative fiction, from Harry Potter to Breakfast of Champions to Parks and Recreation<br/>Explores how fiction, despite its detachment from truth, is often best able to teach us important things about the world in which we live<br/>Concludes by asking in the final chapter whether we all might be fictions<br/>Includes bibliographies and suggested reading lists in each chapter<br/>(https://www.routledge.com/Thinking-about-Stories-An-Introduction-to-Philosophy-of-Fiction/Lebens-vonSolodkoff/p/book/9780367647513?srsltid=AfmBOopvEMrYmliysSfTzkxszGV9TninSN0ZfLSdjhh0hOgV-Ov5TUHs) |
