The series is especially interested in interdisciplinary work that illuminates questions of value, truth, reality and meaning, as well as topics in the relevant fields which have a particular intersection with public life (for example, philosophical and religious perspectives on contemporary issues in ethical and political philosophy). In addition, the series serves as a prominent forum for important academic work emerging within the specific sub-discipline of the philosophy of religion.  \nMore information about this series at [http://www.springer.com/series/8881](http://www.springer.com/series/8881)  \nAllen Speight Editor  \nNarrative, Philosophy and Life  \nEditor  \nAllen Speight  \nInstitute for Philosophy and Religion Boston University  \nBoston, MA, USA  \nISSN 2352-8206 ISSN 2352-8214 (electronic)  \nISBN 978-94-017-9348-3 ISBN 978-94-017-9349-0 (eBook)  \nDOI 10. 1007/978-94-017-9349-0  \nSpringer Dordrecht Heidelberg New York London Library of Congress Control Number: 2014956230  \n© Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2015  \nThis work is subject to copyright.
