Philosophy

Department Overview

Philosophy begins with wonder.

-- Aristotle

Philosophy analyzes and comments critically on concepts that are presupposed and used in other disciplines and in daily life:

  • the natures of knowledge,
  • meaning, reasoning, morality,
  • the character of the world,
  • God,
  • freedom,
  • human nature,
  • justice and history.

Philosophy is thus significant for everyone who wishes to live and act in a reflective and critical manner.
