Film, since its inception more than 100 years ago, has become both a hugely popular form of entertainment and has largely replaced the novel as the most readily accessible expression of popular philosophical concerns. The title of this course is intentionally ambiguous: the course will be concerned with "philosophy on ?lm" both in the sense of the philosophical issues raised in ?lms and in the sense of what philosophy has to say about ?lm. We will look at ?lms and we will read about ?lms and ?lm. Additionally, readings will include philosophy of the sorts raised in the ?lms viewed. Along the way, students will encounter and attempt to give at least provisional answers to questions such as "Are ?lms inherently philosophical?" and "Are ?lms more or less effective than written works for raising certain philosophical issues?" Offered fall. Aesthetics Appreciation 3 credits
