教学大纲

  • Week 1 - Course Pages
     
  • Week 2 - Intensity and the Ordinary: Sex, Death, Aggression and Guilt
    With a focus on Civilization and its Discontents, we examine how Freud’s theories tried to expose profound instincts as they appeared in daily life.
  • Week 3 - Intensity and the Ordinary: Art, Loss, Forgiveness
    A reading of Virginia Woolf’s modernist novel To the Lighthouse shows how giving up the search for the “really real” can liberate one to attend to the everyday.
  • Week 4 - The Postmodern Everyday
    We go back to Ralph Waldo Emerson and forward to Ludwig Wittgenstein to consider how forms of life and language games need to foundation to be compelling.
  • Week 5 - From Critical Theory to Postmodernism
    Through a consideration of Max Horkheimer & Theodor Adorno along with Michel Foucault, we confront the philosophical effort to escape from totality in order to understand the politics of control.
  • Week 6 - Paintings II
    A very brief consideration of how artists are responding to the loss of foundations to produce work that redefines art.
  • Week 7 - Postmodern Identities
    We examine short pieces by Judith Butler and Slavjo Zizek to understand how identities get formed (and performed) in a world without foundations.
  • Week 8 - Late-term Review
    Review of all the thinkers we have studied in Parts I and II of the class, along with some complementary material.
  • Week 9 - Postmodern Pragmatisms
    After postmodern playfulness, or alongside it, we see the resurgence of the pragmatic impulse to return philosophy to real human problems.
  • Week 9 - Extra (Optional) Writing Assignment
