PHI 176 Philosophy of Literature

In this course we study the literary expression of philosophical concerns, such as authenticity freedom and choice, good vs. evil, justice vs. injustice. This involves one or two philosophical works that investigate a philosophical issue (e.g., the ideal society) and then we look at various novels or plays to see how the issue is treated in literature. This course includes multicultural and non-traditional expressions and concerns. Prerequisite: One lower division course in philosophy. GE 5D.
