Course Description

It is an exposition of the philosophical system in Greece [and Rome], with emphasis on the philosophical thought of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. 


Course Objective:
Philosophy cannot be studied apart from its history and the most systematic and orderly way to do it is to begin at the beginning. The aim of this course is to introduce the students to the origin of philosophical thought from Thales to Plotinus and to help them discover the ideas and insights of these early great thinkers.
