講義概要
/Course description
Philosophy is a school of rational asceticism with two goals: “to demonstrate...” and “to communicate...” In a time when sales promotion has replaced critique, this course explores the nature of philosophical quest. What does it mean in the twenty-first century to be a “friend of wisdom”? The first part of the course will explore key philosophical problems in both eastern and western traditions. The second part will develop an in-depth reflection on Descartes’ Meditations on First Philosophy. The course explores how the pursuit of wisdom may lead towards liberation and even joy.
