PHIL 112KNOWING THE SELF3

(T O) Who and what is the self? In this interdisciplinary course (designed for first year PEGs), students critically examine and discuss a variety of inter-connected issues and questions including: what is the nature of human consciousness? What is the connection between mind and brain? What insights about the self and non-self can be gleaned from Buddhist thought and practice? What do findings from research in the neurosciences reveal about the self? Is the self actually a transitory illusion? And, how does one connect theoretical discourse with one’s evolving, personal sense of self- identity? Readings and diverse speakers draw upon Religious Studies, Philosophy, Psychology and the Neurosciences as an introductory inquiry and sustained dialogue in the liberal arts and sciences tradition.
