A strand in the philosophical tradition from Aristotle onwards is that virtuous activity produces happiness. To act virtuously means to align yourself and actions with the world. This class will trace this thread from Aristotle to Heiddeger by examining attempts to triangulate self, world, and action. Can we find happiness through this project? Why is this phantom thread so elusive? What can theology inform and learn from philosophy about knowledge of self, world, and action? Join us for this 6 week class led by Jason Stanghelle in the All Saints Room on the lower level of our sanctuary building. This class presumes a basic understanding of philosophical concepts and will cover Aristotle, Dun Scotus, Kant, Hegel, and Heidegger.
