Aims
By the end of this course, the student should be able:
to analyze in depth a particular issue of philosophical anthropology;
to grasp the interdisciplinary dimensions of the issue discussed;
to relate the issues discussed in class to contemporary scientific developments.
Main themes
Although the content of the course changes each year, the aim is always to address anthropological questions through a study of key Modern or Contemporary philosophers, highlighting the currency of their thought in addressing the questions facing us today. In previous years, for instance, we have studied the questions of empathy, of the pathological presumption according to the analysis of Dasein, of corporeality, etc.
Content and teaching methods
The lectures, for this year, will be devoted to the study, in Michel Henry's work, of the relationship between life and culture.
