Course Description: A survey of themes in the works of some major philosophers of the 17th and 18th centuries in Europe, taught using team-based learning. Spurred by advances in science and criticisms of Church dogma, philosophers in the modern era attempted to reconcile the scientific revolution with a broad view of human abilities. They constructed systematic views of the world and our place in it in order to answer big questions, including ones about appearance and reality, the relation between minds and bodies, the nature of knowledge, God, laws of nature, and free will.
