INDIANA JONES AND PHILOSOPHY What does it mean to choose wisely?
Can heroes seek fortune and glory? Why does Indy take a leap of
faith? Do Indy’s adventures provide him evidence of the
supernatural? Should we hide the Ark of the Covenant in a
military-controlled warehouse? Why are museums so important to
archaeology? If adventure has a name, it must be Indiana Jones!
He’s both a mild-mannered archaeology professor and an intrepid
adventurer traversing the globe in search of lost artifacts.
Whether seeking the Ark of the Covenant in Egypt, the Sankara
Stones in India, the Holy Grail in Turkey, or a mysterious crystal
skull in Peru, Indy’s adventures never fail to delight audiences.
Indiana Jones and Philosophy takes you on a whirlwind journey to
investigate some of the most enduring questions about the human
condition. You’ll read about how Indy has wronged Marion
Ravenwood, how a virtuous person would make amends, the strides
Indy makes to repair his relationship with his father, why Indy
distinguishes fact from truth when he pursues archaeological
treasures, and much more. With trusty guides such as Aristotle,
Camus, Kant, and Nietzsche at your side, you’ll consider possible
answers to these questions and see Indiana Jones in a whole new
light! Comprehensive, immersive, and engaging, Indiana Jones and
Philosophy offers you an accessible and lively opportunity to dive
deeper into the world of Indiana Jones and appreciate the
character’s greatness anew!
