Vue d'ensemble
Philosophie : Explores how philosophers from Socrates to Sartre wrestle with the question of how we should live, including ancient philosophers who present their teachings as pathways to happiness, virtue, and peace of mind; medieval philosophers who seek to understand God鈥檚 will; and modern philosophers who grapple with the tension between community and freedom. Analyzes debates of fundamental moral and existential questions: What things really matter? Does it pay to be good? What constitutes the best society? Can we escape the roller coaster of our emotions? Examines how answers are intertwined with beliefs about God, nature, knowledge, the soul, and politics.
