Red Rising and Philosophy
Red Rising and Philosophy | Courtland Lewis, Kevin McCain
2 posts | 1 read
Red Rising and Philosophy has gathered together a crew of the wisest Helldivers philosophy can offer. Could humanity's love of physical enhancements cause its extinction? Do people doom humanity by trying to all be the same? Can a person love someone, while at the same time wanting that person destroyed? Is equality always the best principle on which to organize society? What is evil, and how does it exist in contemporary life? Does one remain the same person, even after changing every physical aspect of one's body?Is it moral to sell oneself into slavery, whether it’s through sex or manual labor? Is it ethical to sell one's children into slavery, on the promise that their children will live in peace and tranquility? These questions and more are what make Brown’sRed Rising trilogy such an impactful story. Brown pulls no punches, and philosophy works best in such an environment.Red Rising and Philosophy is not for the timid or the faint at heart. It’s notThe Passage, since no one will die from reading it, but reading it could be a life-changing experience.

Not that I‘m obsessed with the RRTrilogy or anything...

**This book was reviewed for the San Francisco and Seattle Book Reviews**

Red Rising and Philosophy focuses on Pierce Brown's Red Rising Trilogy, looking at various aspects, from the value and ethics of eugenics, to stratified caste cultures, to the nature of rebellion. This philosophy series sharpens philosophical concepts, revealing how they are present underlying our entertainment, and illustrating their relevance in today's society.
