PH 302: The Making of the Modern Mind II
3.00 Credits
Hilbert College
This interdisciplinary course comprises a history of ideas beginning with the 16th century and continuing to the present day. It employs a philosophic analysis to show the historical impact of philosophical thought upon politics, science, art and humankind in general as well as the impact of culture on philosophy. An additional goal of this course is that of helping students recognize that many of the ideas with which they are most comfortable did not arise in a vacuum and that many of the ideas which are taken to be obviously true require rational justification. Particular attention will be paid to the varying conceptions of truth, justice and the good life found in different epochs. Specifically, the impact of these philosophic notions upon early modern culture will be observed in the works of writers such as Marlowe, Mann and Camus, musicians such as Wagner, and philosophers such as Descartes, Hume, Kant and Nietzsche.

PH 303: Introduction to Critical Thinking
3.00 Credits
Hilbert College
This course is now raised to PH 303 and can serve as an upper division elective in the liberal arts. An important feature of this course is its concern not only for developing the student’s ability to assess the operative logic of language that purports to instruct or attempts to persuade, but also with cultivating in the student the subtler skill of discerning the underlying assumptions and motives of a given text. These skills could have direct application to performance on standardized tests such as the GMAT or LSAT and other similar examinations which are required of students applying to graduate schools.

PH 325: Philosophies of Love and Marriage
3.00 Credits
Hilbert College
This course is an interdisciplinary study of the realities of love and marriage seeking to arrive at an understanding of the various philosophical approaches to these issues and the implications of such approaches. The course will begin with an investigation of the topic of love and its expression from the ancient Greek world through romantic chivalry to contemporary visions. Once having examined the various manners in which this reality could be understood, the course will seek to investigate one institutionalized aspect of love, namely marriage. The topic will be examined through the perspectives of anthropology, literature and religion to complement the philosophical dimension. While love and marriage are ordinary realities of the everyday world, this course seeks to develop understanding and awareness of the more abstract dimensions of these areas. Students will be challenged to explore approaches other than their own as they also seek to define their personal philosophy of love and marriage. The course will involve lecture and discussion as well as guest lecturers and audio-visual resources to provide the interdisciplinary dimensions of the course.

PH 330: Conflict and Cooperation
3.00 Credits
Hilbert College
This interdisciplinary course seeks to respond to the question ?Can’t we all get along? Sources of investigation for this course will be drawn from the disciplines of ethics, sociology and political science and will cover a wide range of times, ages and cultures. This course will focus specifically upon the concept of obligation and try to identify the types of obligations which exist between individuals, between groups and individuals, and between a government and its citizens. The course will examine the unique interest of individuals, groups and governments which lead them to ignore their obligations and engage in conflict. Finally, a clearer understanding of the conditions of conflict will help students garner insight into both the resolution of conflict and fostering of cooperation.
