General information I. Course details Description: This course introduces you to the foundations of modern philosophy. We ll pay particular attention to the questions addressed by Descartes in his Meditations and by Hume in Book 1 of his Treatise. We ll also study Hume s moral theory, Locke s theory of knowledge and Berkeley s metaphysics. Topics covered include rationalism and empiricism, dreaming, scepticism, proofs of the existence of God, mind-body dualism, idealism, the nature of self, personal identity, causation, reason and the passions. Can I be sure that I m not dreaming? Can I be sure of anything? What, in any case, is this I? What is the relationship between mind and body? What is it to remain the same person over time? Does the external world exist? Is it material or composed of ideas? Can ought be derived from is? Is morality based on reason or the passions? Learning outcomes: Understand and evaluate central ideas in early modern philosophy. Engage with the writings of early modern philosophers in a detailed and systematic way. Develop critical and interpretative skills. Communicate cogent summaries and analyses in oral and written form. Course credit: 15 points, EFTS Contact hours: 12 two-hour lectures and 12 two-hour seminars.

Nor may you copy or borrow extensively from the essays of other students, or have any other person write an essay for you. Be aware that we view these forms of cheating very seriously, and that we regularly take steps to detect plagiarism in work submitted by students. If we find that that you have engaged in dishonest practice, you may be subject to disciplinary action. Penalties range from a failing grade on the specific item of assessment or the course as a whole to expulsion from the university. If you have any doubts about whether you are appropriately referencing sources and material, the onus is on you to check your approach with a lecturer or the Learning Skills Centre. J.
