PHIL 2120 - Understanding Feelings

Arts & Sciences Department
This course introduces the student to the study of philosophy through various approaches to understanding and interpreting feelings. Feelings are integral to our most significant experiences, from love and happiness to justice and freedom, and this course will ask critical questions about what these experiences feel like. We will answer central questions such as what are feelings, how are they different from emotions, what role do they play, and should they play, in our personal, professional, and political lives? Through a reading of ancient Greek to contemporary philosophers and thinkers, this course will bring philosophical analysis to bear on the central role that feelings play in our lives and our world.
