Learning outcomes

The students has a good understanding of one or two classical texts of philosophy. S/he knows how to read classical texts whose style and method can be very different from contemporary philosophy. S/he recognises historical problems and methods. The understanding of classical problematics provides him/her a deeper understanding of systematical questions analysed in other sections.

Contents

The student either studies classical texts independently, eventually with the help of commentaries, or when possible in seminary groups. S/he writes an essay or passes a written exam of the text. The choice of the classic(s) and of the exam type must be confirmed by the teacher who is responsible of the section.
