Main themes
Following the introduction to the key issues and methods of philosophy from a historical perspective, students will examine the main philosophical concepts. This more systematic approach seeks to distinguish between the issues posed by, and similarities between, the different philosophy disciplines: ontology, epistemology, ethics and anthropology; it highlights the fundamental options that emerge and the key elements of their respective vocabularies. Drawing a distinction between the fundamental questions and methods of philosophy underlines the importance of major concepts. Emphasis is placed on the methodological options in contemporary philosophy: phenomenology, hermeneutics, analytical philosophy, etc.
