"'The Philosophy of the Western' features a variety of essays that consider the philosophical significance of westerns. From classic films such as Fort Apache (1948) and The Wild Bunch (1969) to contemporary films and TV shows such as 3:10 to Yuma (2007), and Deadwood (2004-2006), 'The Philosophy of the Western' uses ancient and modern philosophical frameworks to analyze the underlying themes of the genre."--Book jacket.
