PHL 247: Philosophy Of Language
4.00 Credits
University of Rochester
With the rise of modern logic in the early 20th Century, philosophers paid increasingly greater attention to the logical structure of language used in philosophical discourse. As a result, many traditional philosophical problems came to be seen as primarily linguistic in nature. This “linguistic turn” also focused attention on philosophical problems concerning language itself: problems concerning the nature of meaning, truth, reference, and communication. This course is an introductory survey of the results of these inquiries from their origins to the present day. The goal of the course is to examine a number of central philosophical problems about language, while exploring the relation between these problems and problems in metaphysics and epistemology.

PHL 300: Seminar For Majors
4.00 Credits
University of Rochester
The seminar will be devoted to a study of Socrates, Nietzsche, and Dewey. Opinions are divided on whether Socrates was a skeptic, a revolutionary moralist, or a philosopher we can know only as one who provokes others to self-examination. Opinions are similarly divided on Nietzsche’s engagement with Socrates and whether he was a skeptic, a committed anti-moralist, or something else. We will grapple with these questions, and see what illumination can be found in Nietzsche’s and Dewey’s diametrically opposed reactions to the democratic and socialist egalitarian movements of the nineteenth century.
