PERS 617: Persian Reading and Writing for Fluent Speakers
3.00 Credits
University of Pennsylvania
Staff. Prerequisite(s): Fluency in spoken Persian. Offered through Penn Language Center. An intensive, one-semester course designed to teach the reading and writing of standard Tehran Persian to those with a speaking knowledge of that language. In recent years there has been an increasing demand from Persian-speaking Iranian-American students for formal instruction in Persian. While many of these students have some degree of spoken fluency in Persian, they are often unable to read or write it. Their speaking ability makes it difficult to integrate them into first- or second-year classes of students who have started with no knowledge of Persian. If these Persian-speaking students could be brought to at least a second-year level of reading and writing, they could then be enrolled in more advanced courses in Persian where they would be more or less at the same level as other students. The course will focus on the lexical and syntactic differences between written and spoken Persian, and the problems of Persian spelling.

PHIL 001: Introduction to Philosophy
3.00 Credits
University of Pennsylvania
Humanities & Social Science Sector. Class of 2010 & beyond. Detlefsen, Schneider. Also fulfills General Requirement in History & Tradition for Class of 2009 and prior. Freshman Seminar sections offered. In this class we will reflect on the following fundamental questions: What is the nature of underlying reality What are the scope and limits of human knowledge Does God exist What is the ultimate nature of persons Do we have free will These are questions which have been asked since ancient times. As we shall see, they do not have obvious or uncontroversial answers. Perhaps this is why they are still with us. We shall examine a range of answers to these questions, and students shall develop analytic thinking skills to defend and develop their own answers to these questions.

PHIL 004: History of Modern Philosophy
3.00 Credits
University of Pennsylvania
History & Tradition Sector. All classes. Guyer, Hatfield, Detlefsen. In this course, we shall read and analyze some of the centrally important works of seventeenth-and eighteenth-century philosophy. Our readings will include writings from Descartes, Locke, Hume, and Kant. We shall focus on metaphysics (the fundamental nature of reality) and epistemology (theory of knowledge). Some of the metaphysical questions dealt with by these authors concern the existence and nature of mind, matter and God, and the problem of human freedom. Some of the epistemological questions dealt with by these authors concern how much and what kind of knowledge we gain by the senses and by pure reason, and the limits of the human intellect. While we shall read these authors in order to get a sense of their historical relations to each other, the aim of the course is not to provide a sweeping survey of philosophy from Descartes through Kant. Rather, the aim is to focus on a few seminal texts in the history of modern philosophy especially appropriate to the themes noted above.
