PHIL 1000 - Introduction to Philosophy Hours: 4
This course is a general survey of the important questions addressed by Western Philosophy from its beginnings in ancient Greece to the modern day. The course is arranged topically, so that it deals sequentially with ethics, political philosophy, the philosophy of religion, the nature of human knowledge and how it is acquired, philosophy of art, the nature of reality itself and how our minds perceive it. Students taking this course can expect to grapple with questions such as: Why should I be moral? Would it matter if I did things that other people think are wrong? Is it possible to prove the existence of God? Is it possible to have knowledge? Is there any reason to avoid a genuinely virtual reality? And the set of questions that run through the entire course as a constant refrain: Are things really the way they seem to be? Does it really matter if I know?
