- Class Description:
- Most people have heard of the famous philosophers, e.g. Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Hume, Kant, Wittgenstein. And most know that philosophy is about the big issues: reality, truth, God, knowledge, mind, goodness, justice, identity. Far fewer know or understand what philosophers have had to say about these problems. To many, philosophy can seem impractical, unworldly and strange. But deep and careful philosophical reflection on the big issues can enrich your life in unexpected ways. If you are curious about these problems and would like to learn about what philosophers have had to say about them then this is the course for you.
