Knowledge and Reality
0.5 Credit
Hours per week:
- Lecture/Discussion: 3
This course critically analyzes philosophical problems implicit in our understanding of reality and quest for knowledge, with a view to assisting the student in formulating reasonable responses to a diversity of current issues. It considers such questions as: Can we ever be certain of anything through experience, reason, or faith? Is reality ultimately material, and is the mind distinct from matter? Does God exist? Diverse philosophical perspectives and traditions, including both European and non-European sources, will be considered.
