Description
For 3,000 years, humanity has grappled with fundamental questions about the nature of reality, the purpose of life, the balance between freedom and laws, the uses of power, and the definitions of justice and beauty. Since civilization began brilliant minds have pondered these questions--and their search for answers has left us an intellectual legacy of unsurpassed depth and richness. This course addresses the Western philosophical tradition with a comprehensive survey of the history of Western philosophy from its origins in classical Greece to the present.
