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.
