Without question, few directors have had such a powerful influence on the film industry and the moviegoing public as Steven Spielberg. Often referred to as the most successful American filmmaker of all time, Spielberg has been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director six times, winning twice-for Schindlers List in 1994 and Saving Private Ryan in 1999. Seven of his films have received the Best Picture Oscar nomination. He has brought to life some of the most popular heroes of all time, such as Indiana Jones, as well as some of the most despised villains, including Amon Goeth from Schindlers List and the killer shark from Jaws. Whatever the subject-dinosaurs, war, extra-terrestrials, slavery, the Holocaust, or terrorism-one clear and consistent touchstone is present in all of Spielbergs films: an interest in the human condition. In Steven Spielberg and Philosophy, Dean A. Kowalski and some of the nations most respected philosophers investigate Spielbergs art to illuminate the nature of humanity. The book explores rich themes such as cinematic realism, fictional belief, terrorism, family ethics, consciousness, virtue and moral character, human rights, and religion in Spielbergs work. Avid moviegoers and deep thinkers will discover plenty of common ground in this collection.
