Fox and this volume's contributors turn to one of popular culture's most discussed, and highly awarded, television series. Defined by it's dystopian, thought-provoking discussion of modern capitalism, trauma, and corporate horror, \u003ci\u003eSeverance \u003c\/i\u003eprovides rich fodder for studies of philosophy and belief. While the series is not explicitly religious, this book launches a rich discussion of themes, messages, and imagery resonant with Christian belief. Across fifteen chapters, the contributors reveal how the series depicts relevant questions of community, resistance, and liberation, asking what viewers might gain from engaging with the series from a theological perspective. This book similarly hones in on \u003ci\u003eSeverance's \u003c\/i\u003edeeply philosophical inquiries on memory, love, coping with trauma, and work life balance.
