Descartes
To know thyself is to love thyself, and to love thyself is to love thy neighbor. This course will examine what it means to love and know thyself through the
lens of Western philosophy. We shall consider Western philosophy as the foundation of our current moment with all of its challenges and joys. Each week
students will read selections from the history of Western philosophy and apply the philosophical ideas to a contemporary film to self reflect, to analyze self
and world with philosophical concepts. We will ask questions such as how did we get here and how can we become better as individuals and humanity as a whole.
This course requires students to think independently as well as understand the readings, and to develop critical analysis skills to respectfully engage in
online discussions about high-stakes issues.
