How can we find meaning in city life? How can we imbue our lives with a significance that extends beyond the securing of our physical and material well being? This is the question that the philosopher Shane Epting takes up in his latest book, Meaning and the Metropolis: Toward an Urban Existentialism, published in 2024 by Routledge Press. Epting is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Missouri University of Science and technology. He has written extensively on issues related to city life and is the co-founder of the Philosophy of the City Research Group, an international organization of scholars engaged sophisticated philosophical analysis of all things urban. I’m very happy to have in on the podcast. Here is our conversation.
