AN INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY |
||||
|
|
Our objective in this course is threefold. First, we will seek to acquire an understanding of and an appreciation for philosophy as a discipline, with particular emphasis given to the philosophical subfields of metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics. Second, we will attempt to gain a sense of how Western philosophy has developed and changed through the ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary periods. Third, we will try to develop our critical thinking skills by evaluating philosophical arguments. |
