The philosophy of the bluesFrom B.B. King to Billie Holiday, Blues music not only sounds good, but has an almost universal appeal in its reflection of the trials and tribulations of everyday life. Its ability to powerfully touch on a range of social and emotional issues is philosophically inspiring, and here, a diverse range of thinkers and musicians offer illuminating essays that make important connections between the human condition and the Blues that will appeal to music lovers and philosophers alike.Content: Chapter 1 Talkin' to Myself Again (pages 1–15): Joel RudinowChapter 2 Reclaiming the Aura (pages 16–24): Ken UenoChapter 3 Twelve?Bar Zombies (pages 25–37): Wade Fox and Richard GreeneChapter 4 The Blues as Cultural Expression (pages 38–48): Philip JenkinsChapter 5 The Artistic Transformation of Trauma, Loss, and Adversity in the Blues (pages 49–65): Alan M.
