PHIL 3300 - Nietzsche: Forgetting & Remembering Philosophy Prerequisite

Institution:

Stockton University

Subject:

Description:

At least two courses in Philosophy or Permission of Instructor. Not open to freshmen. This course will explore and engage the philosophy of Frederich Nietzsche (1844-1900) as it pertains to his views of active (and passive) forgetting and remembering. Forgetting and remembering will be the guiding experiences that will expose how the history of philosophy, the idea of the self, and the literature of consciousness (and the unconscious) come into play as the special teams in the genealogical games and theories of philosophy. The ability to forget allows for creation, and the ability to remember makes room for histories. After carefully working through Nietzsche's texts from his early, middle and late works, the course will explore examples of forgetting and remembering (voluntary and involuntary memory) in literature represented by the works of Marcel Proust (1871-1922), and in music as represented by Gustav Mahler (1860-1911).
