Catalog description

In this introduction to value theory, students will engage with a range of humanistic responses to timeless yet practical questions such as: How should I live? Should I pursue a life of pleasure? Of meaning? Of virtue, love, friendship, contemplation, or freedom? Are there stages on life's way? What kind of community will promote human and non-human flourishing? What shape must such a community take? Prerequisite: None. DOBE, NEISSER, FENNELL
