# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Burlington: Celebrate Public Philosophy Week with Matthew C. Halteman! 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 25 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: We are delighted to welcome professor Matthew C. Halteman to our Burlington store to talk about his book, Hungry Beautiful Animals: The Joyful Case for Going Vegan. Matthew will be in conversation with UVM professor Tyler Doggett.

Matthew C. Halteman is a professor of philosophy at Calvin University, MI, and a fellow at the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics, UK. He is the author of Hungry Beautiful Animals: The Joyful Case for Going Vegan and a co-editor of Philosophy Comes to Dinner: Arguments about the Ethics of Eating. He teaches and writes about philosophical hermeneutics, philosophy as a way of life, animal ethics, and food systems transformation. He eats vegan desserts like they are going out of style even though they are just now coming into style.

About the book: In Hungry Beautiful Animals, philosopher Matthew C. Halteman shows us how—despite all the forces arrayed against going vegan—we can create an abundant life for everyone without using animals for food. It might seem that moral rectitude or environmental judgement should do the trick, but they can’t. Going vegan must be about flourishing, for all life. Shame and blame don’t lead to flourishing. We must do it with joy instead. Hungry Beautiful Animals is more than philosophy: it’s a book of action, of forgiveness, of love. Funny and wise, this book frees us joyfully to want what we already know we need.

This event is free and open to all. RSVPs are encouraged to help us plan for attendance.
