FREE READ Game of Thrones and Philosophy Henry Jacoby ✓ 1 SUMMARY SUMMARY Ç Game of Thrones and Philosophy Are honor and virtue necessary for happiness or do they get in the wayCan wargs direwolves and other magical beings reveal truths about consciousness and our own realityDoes prophecy show that we are mere pawns of destiny or are we free to live authentic livesIf ever a story was ripe for philosophical analysis George R R Martin's A Song of Ice After abandoning George R R Martin s A Song of Ice and Fire in disgust on page 29 having suffered mightily through cardboard characters and all the muddled authorial insight of a shoelace I swore I would not get sucked into the tv show But people kept talking about it I blame them Frankly I was and remain appalled by the brevity of story intervals between the metronomically pornographic refrains of nude women sucking cock which occur with the regularity and inevitability of network television commercial breaks Despite these cringe worthy moments I uickly became addicted to this show My addiction is entirely the fault of the sumptuous costuming and gratuitously gorgeous set decor not to mention those heinous location scouts who routinely choose some of the most beautiful places on the earth to film not to mention the sheer brilliance of the cast Curse them Indulge me just a moment to name some names Charles Dance Nikolaj Coster Waldau Peter Dinklage Lena Hedley wow wow and triple wow Game of Thrones and Philosophy In the vein of Lost and Philosophy and House and Philosophy also edited by Henry Jacoby this series is pop philosophy and if you like both pop culture and thinking about things that make your brain hurt anything in William Irwin series is a sheer entertainment Some of the thought provoking essays included Tedesco s It Would Be Mercy which reviews the concepts of passive versus active euthanasia Stacy Goguen nods at the brilliant Gayatri Spivak when she suggests how chivalry and colonialism cause similar cultural rot and ruination It is true that a few of these essays read like fandom than philosophy let us not forget these are still the uncool kids writing about the cool ones but I d rather read a twenty first century nerdlet s Hobbsian take on Westeros than what Snookie ate for breakfast One essay in particular has been rattling around in my brain Jacoby s No One Dances the Water Dance which makes the claim that martial arts studies are good for the character In a section entitled Virtues and the Good Life Mr Jacoby introduces virtue ethics and as we know these are not governed by universal ethics but rather by culturally narrow ones To live happily and well to bring eudaimonia aka well being or flourishing or flow to one s existence one should practice virtue The point is that almost everyone who has ever studied martial arts realizes the master pupil relationship is essentially based on economics A master teaches for the money While we all love the stories where the master recognizes the excellent student and suddenly the economic relationship is transcended as the student is raised to prodigal son this recurring theme has been done to death The relationship is rather based on the euation of how much I am willing to pay you or work for you for what you will teach me Once filthy lucre has been introduced into the euation what results is virtue for sale So yes Zen Taoism Ninjutsu and needle work all have components that are as much choice as GDP If it is true that virtue can be learned through practice and a master can induce virtue in student in a way that a personal trainer can induce muscles in her client then if virtue euals happiness then yes happiness is for sale for the price of a personal coach Really دیدار فرهی و فتوحات
