Description: Devil and Philosophy : The Nature of His Game, Paperback by Arp, Robert (EDT), ISBN 0812698541, ISBN-13 9780812698541, Brand New, Free shipping in the US In this delightful romp through matters satanic in popular culture and its intersection with philosophy, edited by Robert Arp (the author of several books on the relationship of philosophy with pop-culture and creativity), almost two baker's dozens of philosophers from all walks of the field engage with the meaning of the devil in today's world. From heavy metal, RPGs and the continuing appeal of satanic imagery in music, art and film to the moral implications of dualism in general and the question of Satan in religious mythology (as one of the essays herein asks, "Romantic hero or just another asshole?") the collection is filled both with humor and serious unpacking of the concepts. Both believers and atheists have contributed to this collection, and wonderfully witty and irreverent illustrations add to the enjoyment. But, as the introductory disclaimer cautions: "we recommend against reading passages backwards". Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
