About this Course
The Philosophy of Everything: Understanding the Big Picture
This course explores the fundamental questions about the nature of existence and the universe, and how we can make sense of our place in it. Drawing from the rich history of philosophical inquiry, we will examine various perspectives and theories that seek to provide answers to the big questions. Through a combination of lectures, discussions, and readings, we will delve into the following topics:
Course Outline
- The nature of reality: What is real? How do we know what is real?
- Metaphysics: What is the ultimate nature of the universe and our place in it?
- Epistemology: How do we acquire knowledge and what are the limits of human understanding?
- Philosophy of mind: What is consciousness and how do we explain subjective experiences?
- Moral philosophy: What is the nature of right and wrong, and how should we live?
- Political philosophy: What is the best form of government and how should society be organized?
- Existentialism: What is the meaning of life and how can we find purpose in a seemingly meaningless world?
This course is designed for anyone interested in exploring the big questions about life, the universe, and everything in between. No prior knowledge of philosophy is required, as we will start with the basics and gradually build up to more complex ideas. By the end of the course, students will have a deeper understanding of the philosophical perspectives that shape our understanding of the world, as well as the critical thinking skills needed to engage with these ideas.
