A unique philosophical look at the hit television series
Downton Abbey
Who can resist the lure of Downton Abbey and the triumphs
and travails of the Crawley family and its servants? We admire
Bates's sense of honor, envy Carson's steadfastness, and thrill to
Violet's caustic wit. Downton Abbey and Philosophy draws on
some of history's most profound philosophical minds to delve deeply
into the dilemmas that confront our favorite characters. Was
Matthew right to push Mary away after his injury in the war? Would
Lord Grantham have been justified in blocking Lady Sybil's marriage
to Tom Branson? And is Thomas really such a bad person?
* Offers fresh and intriguing insights into your favorite
Downton Abbey characters, plot lines, and ideas
* Addresses many of your most pressing questions about Downton
Abbey's story and characters, such as: Should Daisy have lied
to William about her feelings toward him--especially to the
point of marrying him? Should Mr. Bates have been upfront with Anna
from the beginning about his past?
* Views Downton Abbey through the lens of some of the most
influential philosophical thinkers, from Saint Augustine and David
Hume to Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill
* Ventures upstairs and downstairs to examine key themes
involving ethics, virtue, morality, class, feminism, the human
condition, and more
Philosophical speculation awaits on every page of this essential
Downton Abbey companion. So take a seat in your personal
library, have the butler pour a cup of tea, and start reading!
