Sartre

Catalog description

This course will focus on one of Sartre?s major works: either Being and Nothingness, or Critique of Dialectical Reason, or some other great work. Sartre is not only a phenomenologist and ontologist, but also an astute political philosopher with a unique method of investigating historical events, both past and present. This course will combine close reading of his texts with speculative phenomenological and social applications. It is strongly recommended that any students enrolling in this class have completed at least two Philosophy courses before it begins.
