Section Info: No books are required for this class. We will be using pdf files that are available online at http://www.earlymoderntexts.com/index.html This course will focus on the philosophies of Rene Descartes (1596-1650), David Hume (1711-1776), and Immanuel Kant (1724-1804). Philosophy is sometimes described both as the love of wisdom and the search for truth. We will not just be asking what these 3 dead guys had to say. We will be asking what is true and what is false regarding the following questions. What is real? What can be known? Is knowledge of God possible? Where does morality come from? The assignments will all be online short essay questions rather than papers or in-class tests. Attendance and participation in discussion will be weighted heavily.
