Learning outcomes
Formative tasks: Beyond offering a recalling of authors and schools within the ancient philosophy, the course aims at teaching to use the proper philosophical terminology. Also it aims at teaching the critical and shared use of an original philosophical text, for acquiring basic philosophical matters and concepts.
Prerequisites: A knowledge of the history of the ancient philosophy (from VI Century B.C. to 529 A.D.) is previously required (if lacking, it must be acquired or improved). On the contrary a knowledge of the ancient Greek and Latin languages is not required (all the ancient original terms will be translated), although it allows to work easier within this scientific field. An attention to lexical research and an interest in a critical reading of philosophical texts are very useful
Program
Course's title and content: “Socrates and the care of the soul in Ian Patočka”
“…because of the moral confusion of his time, Socrates had no answer near at hand: he had only questions, nothing more. And he tried to drive others to ask the same questions. Making them to look inside themselves he made them deeply to change. The question about man’s extreme good made their souls radically to turn: everyone is obliged to come back about himself and to look for his last ultimate goal and his own calling. … Socrates urges them to take care of themselves, of their souls. And also the exterior acting, namely politics, depends on this care of the soul, on this interior practice” (I. Patočka, Socrates, Praha 1947). We aim at exploring the Socratic care of the soul, both in general, both in this important thinker of 20th century.

Examination Methods
Teaching Methods: The course will be carried on by frontal lessons, with an introductory presentation of subjects, with direct reading of the texts on the monographical subject and following discussions. Therefore attendance at classes will be very useful and desirable, though obviously not compulsory.
Assesments: Some oral questions will be put to the student; he will be invited to read and comment some passages of the original texts already read together during classes.
