Introduction to Philosophy Part 2

<p><span style="font-size:16px">Part 2 of a basic introductory course, exploring some of the big questions in Philosophy.</span></p>

<p> </p>

<p><span style="font-size:16px">Stimulating discussion about the value of being, the value of thinking and the meaning of life as expounded by various thinkers while sharpening our own critical minds, challenging our understanding and developing new ways of thinking about the world around us, our families and society at large. Part 2 will cover great thinkers such as Rene Descartes and the rationalist school, Immanuel Kant and Idealism, David Hume and the empiricist school, the political philosophy of Rousseau, and existentialism of Paul Sartre. This is a fantastic course for anyone who would like to learn about the history of philosophy and is interested in critical thinking. It is for all who have never had experience of studying the subject as well as those who might have studied some modules before.</span></p>
