PHL 1008: Introduction to Metaphysics
3.00 Credits
Manhattanville College
What exactly is reality? What should count as "real"? This is the basic question this course will ask. It will deal both with the means with which we try to answer this question, and with the most important answers to this question. Its objective will be to discuss such problems as what is the basic "unit" of reality? Does the real only include matter and things made out of matter? Does it something other than matter? What is the relation between thought and reality? Course readings will include works by Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, Michael Loux, and Peter Van Inwagen.
