Learning outcomes
|
The objective of this course is to look at various approaches to philosophy and to the history of the origin of philosophy (including the contexts from which it comes and from which it derives its sense). This course will also consider the origin, the development, and the characteristics of particular philosophical disciplines, and the relationship between philosophy, science, art, religion, and politics - as well as the uniqueness of philosophy.
Students will be better able to describe the meaning of philosophy in society, in life, and in academic areas, and will encounter philosophical terminology. They will learn to read and analyze philosophical texts, to discuss in a group, and to reflect on outside reading. Critical thinking will be developed through writing.
