TOPICS COURSE DESCRIPTIONS:
PH-230 Love and Friendship
What are love and friendship? Why do we love and who are our friends? What is the
relation between self-love and love for others? What, if anything, do love for a partner,
for the divine, for art and knowledge, and for one's country share? This course explores
a number of philosophical approaches—from ancient Greece to the contemporary world—to
these questions. Particular attention will be paid to the implications of the theories
we will analyze for issues such as human nature, happiness and the good life, and
moral and political relations.
PH 327 Aristotle
Aristotle's philosophy aspires to be a systematic whole. At the same time his writings
are rich in suggestions and open to the multiplicity of the phenomena. Our goal will
be both to identify the fundamental and pervasive principles of his thought and to
appreciate the complexity of the treatises we will study. We will focus primarily
on his theory of human nature and his view of the distinctive place of human beings
in the cosmos.
