30 CATS

The module is designed to fulfil two roles: it is both a critical survey of major thinkers and issues in Greek Philosophy from its beginning to Aristotle, and a general introduction to some of the central problems with which philosophers have been concerned ever since. This is a wide-ranging module, which explores issues in metaphysics, epistemology, psychology, ethics, politics and aesthetics. Philosophers studied include Heraclitus, Parmenides, Zeno, Democritus, Protagoras, Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.
