PHI 3172: MEDIEVAL WESTERN PHILOSOPHERS -
Tuesdays 10:30 - 13:15 at UCA 111 - Louis Ha. email
Middle ages in the West lasted for more than a millennium. During this period people lived under certain unity and uniformity commanded by the strong influence of Christianity and the common acceptance of the importance of faith in one’s daily life. This course aims at presenting the thoughts of those centuries developed in serenity and piety together with the breakthroughs made by individual philosophers. Modern people, though live in a technologically advanced era, are quite often facing almost the same challenges of their Medieval fellow human-beings.
