Credit Hours: 03

Course Description: The course introduces undergraduate students to some of the main concerns in philosophy concentrating on

the works of major thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Marx, Kierkegaard,

Husserl, Sartre, Foucault, and Derrida, to name a few The class discussions will center on broad philosophical

concerns: the nature of philosophy, the nature and limits of human knowledge, the scope and limits of human

freedom, the differences between right and wrong conduct, the nature of good life, and the meaning and the

value of human existence. The students will thus be given introductory overview of different areas of

philosophy beginning with Plato. The topics for discussion will include: Morality, Free Will, Metaphysics

and Knowledge. The basic principles and methods of logical reasoning will be introduced and students will

be given opportunity to participate actively in class discussions.

Course Objectives:

1. Understanding basic concepts of philosophy in the fields of metaphysics, axiology, and epistemology.

2. Understanding of philosophical terms.

Course Contents:

1.A review of the history of philosophy.

2.A discussion on the major problems and methods of philosophy.

3.Studying the work of at least two philosophers from each of the following groups: 1. Greco-Roman

Philosophers Plato, Aristotle, Democritus, Pythagoras, Heraclitus, Protagoras, Epicurus, Seneca, and

Epictetus 2. Medieval Religious Philosophers Avicenna, Averroes, St. Thomas Aquinas 3. Renaissance

Philosophers Machiavelli, Erasmus, Thomas More.

4. Enlightenment and Sui Generis Philosophers: Copernicus, Descartes, Hobbes, Spinoza, Leibniz, Locke,

Berkeley, Hume, Kant.

5. Idealists: Fichte, Schelling, Schiller, Hegel.

6. Utilitarian Philosophers: Jeremy Bentham, J.S. Mill.

7. Romantic Reactionaries: Rousseau, Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard.

8. Materialist Philosophers: Feuerbach, Marx.

9. The Irrational Philosophers: Bergson, Freud.

10. Phenomenologists and Existentialists: Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Camus, Fanon.

11. Marxist Philosophers: Lukacs, Gramsci, Croce, Althusser.

12. Linguists, Semiotician, Structuralist, and Deconstructionists: Saussure, Levi-Strauss, Lacan, Barthe,

Foucault, Derrida.
