Philosophy 271: Animals and Ethics ES
4.00 Credits

These theories will be examined in their applications to problems surrounding our treatment of non-human animals including consuming animals as food, using animals for experimentation, and the recreational use of animals. In addition, this course will consider issues surrounding our ascription of various mental states or capacities to animals including the ability to feel pain, possessions of interests and desires, and the ascription of awareness, self-awareness, and language to animals.

Philosophy 272: Ethical Thinking
4.00 Credits
Hiram College
Ethical life depends upon identifiable intellectual capacities as well as virtues of character. This course aims to develop the intellectual virtues that are a necessary condition of an ethical life. This requires two sorts of skills-those of critical thinking and of dialogue. The first set of skills enables the analysis of arguments, exposure of fundamental assumptions, and the rigorous statement of criticism of arguments and underlying ethical issues. The second set of skills enables a sympathetic approach to other's moral values and ethical frameworks, the ability to mediate ethical discussions, seek shared ground, formulate issues in non-prejudicial or unnecessarily judgmental terms, the ability to re-frame ethical problems and open new ground for discussion. This course will cultivate these skills while engaged in analysis and discussion of some of the most pressing moral difficulties we face.

Philosophy 290: Post Modernism
3.00 Credits
Hiram College
Post Modernism is the reigning philosophical and artistic movement today. Contemporary artworks and philosophers are casually described as Post-Modern, though pinning down just what that means can be difficult. In this class, we will try to identify what Post-Modernism is and how it differs from earlier movements, especially Modernism and the Enlightenment. We will trace its birth and development across the last half-century in America and Europe. We will be focusing on its philosophical representatives, though we will examine how these ideas can take artistic form.
