M-FIL/07 - HISTORY OF ANCIENT PHILOSOPHY

Period

Sem. IB dal Nov 14, 2016 al Jan 21, 2017.

Learning outcomes

We aim at teaching the use of the proper philosophical terminology (nearly all deriving from the ancient Greek) and the critical reading of original philosophical texts, in order to acquire basic philosophical matters and concepts. Also, through seminars and debates, we aim at making postgraduates to acquire a skill to cross-examination.
A general knowledge of the history of ancient philosophy (from 6th Century b.C. to 529 a.D.) is presupposed. Surely s competence in ancient Greek and Latin languages makes it easier the work within this scientific field, however it is not compulsory. An attention to lexical research and an interest in a critical reading of philosophical texts and to arguments are very useful.

Program

Title an Subject of the Course: Socrates in Arendt’s and Nussbaum’s readings.
We aim at exploring Socrates’ character, first of all by some recent historical studies (Sassi 2015). However we will reflect also upon theoretical readings by some contemporary scholars: both Hannah Arendt in 1953 and Martha Nussbaum in 2010 read the Greek philosopher and particularly his method (Socratic dialogue) as a mean and an instrument for an authentic education in politics’ field and for constructing a real democracy.

Examination Methods

Didactical Methods: The course will be carried on by frontal lessons, with direct reading of the texts and following discussions. Therefore attendance at classes will be very useful and desirable, though obviously not compulsory. The same program is valid for students who cannot attend lessons; nevertheless, they must get in touch with the teacher, in order to receive indications on adding texts, whose reading will compensate for lacking attendance: these texts will be agreed for every student, with regard to his previous knowledge, curriculum and interests.

Ways of evaluation: 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.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE
