PHIL 161H - Seminar in Ethics-Honors 3 credits
This discussion based seminar explores, through works of philosophy and literature, the nature and meaning of good and evil. In exploring goodness, we will consider a set of philosophical theories (natural law theory, consequentialism, Kantian ethics, social contract theory, intuitionism, and virtue ethics) and then apply them to a variety of psychological, sociological, political and theological issues with the help of Plato’s masterpiece The Republic.
Prerequisites: Student must be ENG 101 -ready. Offered spring semester.
