PHIL031 PO - Ethical Theory: Ancient to Early ModernWhen Offered: Fall 2015.
Instructor(s): J. Tannenbaum
Credit: 1
Introduction to ethical theory through the major writings of several leading historical figures such as Plato, Aristotle, Hume and Kant. Among the topics we will discuss are: is acting virtuously necessary for living a good life; are a person’s motives relevant to whether an action is praiseworthy or blameworthy; can reason alone move us to act; and are moral judgments the result of reasoning or instead products of emotion? There are no pre-requisites for this class.
