PHL202

This course is a survey of many major issues raised over the two-and-a-half millennia of western philosophy. With an emphasis on historical context and development, as well as philosophy's relationship to Christian thought, this course challenges students to critically explore philosophical questions and introduce them to the great tradition of intellectual inquiry. Special attention will be given to the subjects of truth and knowledge, reality and appearance, mind and body, right and wrong, beauty and the existence of God.
