The course begins with reading Plato's Allegory of the Cave and selections from Descartes. From there the class changes depending on the interests of the students to either a deeper dive into philosophical texts or an overview of the major topics of Philosophy, namely Logic, epistemology, ethics, metaphysics and linguistics/aesthetics. If that sounds good to you, or if you just like talking about classic literature with an eye on metaphor, then Philosophy would be a great class for you to take.
