1:30pm - 2:50pm
An introduction to the thought of Marx, Nietzsche, and Freud. Organized thematically rather than chronologically, the course will bring these thinkers into dialogue on six themes: interpretation, history, subjectivity, politics, religion, and art. By concentrating on such pivotal issues, we will seek not only to delineate the origins of much modern thought, but also to develop resources for reflecting on our contemporary moment. Taught in English.
