French Intellectual Tradition

Credit: 3 hours.

Close reading and in-depth discussion of texts by major French intellectuals form the sixteenth to the mid-twentieth century. Aims to explore the centrality of epistemology (How can we know? Can we know that what we know is true? How can we reason in the face of evil?) in selected texts that will be discussed within their historical contexts, investigating why these issues were raised then and how their contemporaries might have responded to them, as well as their relationship to issues still debated in the twenty-first century. Taught in English.
