Abstract
COURSE AT A GLANCE: • Goal: To understand and assess the primacy Modern thought gives to reason. Our primary issue will be the agency of human reason. Related questions will include: What is reason’s nature? What are its powers? What are its means? What are its ends? What are its products? What are its limits? What other powers besides reason do humans have? Which powers should have priority? • Course Outline: Descartes’ Rationalist Epistemology and Dualist Metaphysics; Hume’s Empiricism and Skepticism; Kant’s Critical Philosophy.
