Endurance Sport and the American Philosophical Tradition, edited by
Douglas R. Hochstetler, analyzes the relationship between endurance
sports-such as running, cycling, and swimming-and themes from the
American philosophical tradition. The contributors enter into
dialogue with writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, William James,
Henry David Thoreau, and John Dewey, as well as more recent
scholars such as John McDermott and bell hooks. Examining American
philosophical themes informs issues in endurance sport, and the
experiential nature of endurance sport helps address philosophical
issues and explain philosophical themes in American philosophy. The
chapters bear witness to the fact that philosophy is not limited to
abstract notions such as justice, truth, happiness, and so forth,
but intersects with and has a bearing on our human endeavors of
work and play. Furthermore, the themes centrally related to the
American philosophical tradition align closely with the challenges
and experiences present and faced by runners, cyclists, swimmers,
and endurance athletes in general.
