Jimmy Buffett and his music have affected literally hundreds of thousands of people around the world. His work also spans generations--he has been performing for over forty years--and genres. Is Buffett's music just a good time, or is more going on? Jimmy Buffett and Philosophy explores the work of a self-proclaimed non-philosopher and shows that the work of Buffett is indeed philosophical. The essays in this volume also use Buffett's work to exemplify and clarify important philosophical issues such as the meaning of community, personal identity, and the nature of being and the ideas of beauty, pleasure, and responsibility through the examination of his songs, novels, autobiography, concerts, and his fans.
