課程概述 |
The purpose of this course is to introduce some famous philosophical topics for non-majors. We plan to cover four of them: 1. Must we be rationally responsible for our beliefs and judgments? 2. How should be our attitude toward death? 3. Do we have free will? 4. Are humans by nature social? |
課程目標 |
Assiduous and successful execution of the course requirements should allow students to 1. better appreciate the aforementioned topics and explain why they are complicated and difficult to answer; 2. think more abstractly and comprehensively, and indirectly to cultivate writing skills applicable in non-philosophical fields; 3. enjoy the pleasures of thinking. |
