PHIL 1.23 Cross-Cultural Perspectives on Knowledge

You probably think you have some knowledge—like 5-3=2, that you slept badly, or that your friends are on their way. But how do you know? What if you’re dreaming or hallucinating? And what is knowledge, anyway? This course introduces epistemology—the study of knowledge and related questions—through a cross-cultural lens, engaging with philosophical texts and ideas from around the world.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
