1 PHIL 470 ( : Term 2). Comparative Conceptions of the Self. Tues & Thurs. 3:30-5:00pm. Buchanan B-215. Professor Evan Thompson Office hours: Tues & Thurs 2:00-3:00pm, Wed 1-2:00pm, or by appointment. Office: Buchanan E377. TA: Jelena Markovic: This course will examine conceptions of the self from different cultural and philosophical traditions the modern West, and different historical periods from South Asia and East Asia. Our approach will be to study the self and the identity of a person over time by looking at change and transformation, focusing especially on experiences that can be said to be transformative. Philosophers have long been interested in these topics, but recently they have received new attention thanks to Laurie Paul s book, Transformative Experience (2014). Her work serves as the springboard for this course. Along the way we will read works by Anglophone analytical philosophers, European existentialists, Classical Chinese thinkers, South Asian and East Asian Buddhist thinkers, and contemporary Buddhist writers. We will end the course by reading Kwame Anthony Appiah s new book, The Lies that Bind: Rethinking Identity. Creed, Country, Color, Class, Culture (2018). The objective of this course is to give you an opportunity to read closely and think intensively about a wide range of philosophical approaches to the self and transformative experiences, and to discuss them with your classmates and me. The learning approach will be focused discussion of the readings. Emphasis will be placed on interactive classroom discussion. You are required to do the assigned class readings before each class meets. Please note that this is is a fourth-year course so the readings will be more demanding than in lower-level philosophy courses. Please make sure to budget your time to do the readings before the class meets. Given our objective and approach, attendance and participation are essential and will make up 20% of your final mark. You should not take this class if you cannot commit to regular attendance. I recognize and acknowledge that some of you may feel uncomfortable speaking in class. For those who feel this way, I encourage you to me with your thoughts and questions. This will let me know that you are engaged with the material, and will count toward the participation component of your mark. (See also the policy below.) Cell phone and computer policy: Cell phones should be turned off or put in silent mode during class. You should not be sending messages. If you are using a computer, then it should be used only for taking notes. Required Books (available at the UBC bookstore, listed alphabetically) Stephen Addis et al. eds., Zen Sourcebook Kwame Anthony Appiah, The Lies That Bind: Rethinking Identity. Creed, Country, Color, Class Culture

Scholarship rests on examining and referring to the thoughts and writings of others. When another person s words (i.e., phrases, sentences, or paragraphs), ideas, or entire works are used, the author must be acknowledged in the text, in footnotes, in endnotes, or in another accepted form of academic citation. Where direct quotations are made, they must be clearly delineated (for example, within quotation marks or separately indented). Failure to provide proper attribution is plagiarism because it represents someone else s work as one s own. Plagiarism should not occur in submitted drafts or final works. A student who seeks assistance from a tutor or other scholastic aids must ensure that the work submitted is the student s own. Students are responsible for ensuring that any work submitted does not constitute plagiarism. Students who are in any doubt as to what constitutes plagiarism should consult their instructor before handing in any assignments. For further information, please see the following link about academic misconduct: PLAGIARISM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED AND WILL RESULT IN AN AUTOMATIC FAILURE OF THE ASSIGNMENT, as well as possible further disciplinary action by the University. Policy The following guidelines apply to communication during this course:
3 3 I will make every effort to reply to legitimate inquiries within 24 hours during weekdays but will likely take longer to respond to during the weekend. Each message should include in the Subject line the course identifier and a clear statement of purpose (e.g., PHIL 470: Question about Paper); otherwise, it may be deleted along with spam messages.
