| Course Objectives: | This course aims to improve students’ abilities in philosophical reading, thinking, and writing. |
| Course Content: | This course aims to improve the skills of reading philosophical texts in a critical perspective, conducting philosophical research and writing argumentative philosophical texts. Seminal texts in philosophy will be selected and read along with the class. Emphasis will be given to the textual material and issues in reading and understanding. An overview of the following will be provided: The nature of the text, specificity of philosophical texts, text and context, issues in translation, interpretation and understanding. |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Students will learn to read critically philosophical texts. 2) Students will learn to interpret a philosophical text by placing it in its relevant contexts. 3) Students will learn to reconstruct and critically examine the claims made by the text. 4) Students will learn to think critically about major philosophical problems. 5) Students will become familiar with the discussions about some of the major philosophical issues throughout the history of philosophy. |
