Description:

Prereq. PL 250 or PL 310 or PL 311 - The student examines the history of philosophy to determine the unique contributions of various philosophies as well as the common threads that run throughout philosophical thought. Up to this point, the student has studied various worldviews in their respective contexts but has not focused on the relationships across those views. Now she develops an historical overview that stresses philosophy as a developmental process through the centuries. For example, she explores the relationship of enlightenment questions to the philosophies that preceded them. By the end of the course, she sees her own point of view as growing out of a complex background of ideological and cultural factors.
