About

Each week we will discuss a different text (or part of a text) relating to Western Philosophy. I will do my best to offer PDFs of the texts and ask you to read them before coming to a session, where we will then discuss the contents of the text. I will do my best to go over the main points of a text before we discuss our opinions, expect 15 minutes of summary to 45 minutes of discussion. 👍

This course is very much not decided, and we can jump around texts as people so desire, however I will try to stay in a general chronological order with the texts. The amount of time we spend on each is up to you guys :)
