Cíle předmětu (anotace):
|
The course is conceived as an interpretation of basic political-philosophical positions from antiquity to the present. The lectures should introduce students to the major figures in the history of political thought and show that their theories are not merely historically contingent concepts but attempts to solve political problems still relevant today. The course will be divided into two parts, the ancient (Mondays) and modern (Thursdays).
****
Ancient:
How did ancient philosophers and intellectuals understand politics, the political community, and civic virtue? What were their ideas about good and flawed rulers, laws, and regimes? In this course we will study and discuss some of the main issues and themes in ancient political philosophy (roughly from the 5th until the 1st c. BCE) by reading selections from key texts in translation. Rather than taking our cue from some central problems in the history of political philosophy (equality, sovereignty, legitimacy, obligation, etc.), this course takes a 'bottom up' approach, starting from the ancient texts themselves. The emphasis will be on the ways in which the analysis of 'political' questions for ancient authors was deeply integrated with ethics, ways of life, and social and economic issues, and on the particularities of the many viewpoints reflected in the texts.
Themes that will be discussed include: ancient thinking on democracy (Protagoras, Aristotle), ancient thinking on monarchy and kingship, challenges to moral and political thought in the form of immoralist arguments, distinctions between regimes, ideas about law, utopia, the ideal city, and civic virtue. In the last session, we will look at the reception of ancient ideas about kingship in an Italian Renaissance philosopher, who, though largely unknown today, deserves to be on a par with Machiavelli (as was recently argued by James Hankins in his 2023 book on Francesco Patrizi of Siena).
The classes will consist of discussion of the course material. Students are expected to read carefully the texts in preparation for each class. For each class (with exception of the first class of 25.09), they will prepare (a) one question (to be discussed during class) and (b) one proposition (that they are prepared to argue for).
Modern:
A text will be selected for every seminar. Each seminar will consist of three parts. 1) A short lecture, in which the teacher will present the textual, philosophical and general context of the texts. 2) A presentation of the selected portion of text by the students. 3) Discussion.

EXAMINATION ANCIENT:
The final grade (expressed numerically) will consist of two weighed parts:
- preparation and participation in discussions: 30%
- written essay at the end of the course: 70%.
Since participation is part of the final mark, a maximum of 2 absences is allowed. In case of absence, please inform the instructor in advance).
For their final essay students will be able to choose from three essay questions the one that suits them best. The questions will be directly related to the course readings and discussions. A mid-term essay will have to be submitted on November 20th (essay questions to be circulated during the term). These essays will be discussed the week after (Nov. 27th). This mid-term essay will not be part of the final grade, but is a good way to practice for writing the final essay.
EXAMINATION MODERN
Students will choose one of the texts discussed at the seminar for an oral examination. Students should be able to present the structure of the text as well as the logic of its arguments and be able to engage in a critical discussion.
A prerequisite for the examination is a regular attendance (maximum of 3 absences) and active involvement in seminar discussions.
