About This Course

According to the ancient Greeks, philosophy means the love of wisdom. More broadly, philosophy is a journey undertaken by those who wish to understand fundamental truths about themselves, the world in which they live, and their relationship to the world and to each other. This course is the second in a three-part series exploring the history of this collective journey, beginning with Augustine and on to the Middle Ages and Thomas Aquinas to Duns Scotus. It is not necessary to have taken part one to enjoy part two. This course uses the Hybrid format which allows students to participate remotely and/or in the classroom.
