Learning outcomes |
This UC aims, in general terms: 1. to stimulate the taste for new themes, new authors, and new learning; to foster the ability to analyze and synthesize, critical thinking, autonomous thinking, and originality in approaches to emerging problems in Culture
In specific terms, it intends: 1. to determine the notions of «Philosophy» and «Culture» and some models of the relationship between them (critical, dialectic, mimetic, ancillary, justification, fragmentary, dispute, and others); 2. to recognize and justify the ambiguity and impossibility of a univocal concept of Culture; to problematize the relationship between Knowledge and Power from the processes of Antigone and Socrates, the Kantian Aufklärung, and the Nazi concentration camps; 4. at the end, the student must write a study summary of a research project.
