  • PHI 460: Metaphysics

    3.00 Credits
    Aquinas College - Tennessee

    3 Credit Hours Prerequisites: ENG 112, and one (1) previous course in philosophy at Aquinas College This course examines the fundamental question of the meaning of Being and the attendant issues of causality, transcendentals, and the problem of evil. Examined first are the foundations of metaphysics as initially developed by ancient Greek philosophers (principally Parmenides, Plato, and Aristotle). Thereafter, the concept of Being as transformed in Christian thought is illuminated through an analysis of the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas (particularly De Ente et Essentia). Modern critiques of the traditional metaphysical project are discussed in an analytical exposition of empiricism, idealism, and existentialism.
