PHI 010G - (HP) Wondering and Wandering: An Historical Tour of Western Philosophy

Semester Hours: 3
Philosophy proceeds by wonder, and in this course we will wander through ages spanning two and half millenniums and the whole Mediterranean world from northern Africa through all of Europe in search of the wonderings of philosophers who constitute the Western tradition.  Towards the end, we will briefly touch upon contemporary philosophers of America.  Our twin targets of attention throughout will be metaphysics (or ontology) and epistemology (theory of knowledge).  No prior experience is assumed; all are welcome on the tour.
