There is a multitude of interesting philosophical and ethical questions that arise in these two beginning volumes of Kirkman’s The Walking Dead. There are also important ethical considerations raised in the Delfino and Taylor "Walking Contradictions" and the McKendry and de Silva "I’m Gonna Tell Them about Wayne" articles from The Walking Dead and Philosophy. I want you to imagine that you are facing a similar ethical issue/dilemma as that facing the characters in TWD. I want you to focus on the following: In Kirkman’s TWD Vol. 2, Herschel fights with Rick over what should be done with the zombies that he (Herschel) keeps in his barn. Also, in the two assigned essays from The Walking Dead and Philosophy, the authors present arguments for two distinct positions on the moral status of zombies. Please address each of the following questions in your discussion:How does Kirkman’s TWD raise and treat the issue of the moral status of zombies?How do the authors of the two essays from The Walking Dead and Philosophy treat the issue of the moral status of zombies? Based on your reading of these essays, do you think zombies have moral status? Why or why not?
