Required Reading
Each of the texts addresses the question “how then should we live?” How should we live our lives -- not simply as individuals, but as individuals caught up in complex, conflicting social/historical/political/economic and even cosmic webs. Each examines the ethical life – the life lived in relationship to others both inside and outside one's own community and culture, examining the boundaries of freedom and responsibility, the self and the “other”, and often the very nature of truth and existence.
In addition to the required anthology, various readings will be made available online. Students are also expected to review all lecture content listed on the Schedule and Lecture Notes page.
