What You Will Study
Do you often find yourself asking the ‘Big Questions’ about life? If so, it might be that you are a philosopher without even realising it!
In this course, we will introduce philosophy by exploring one of those big questions: what is the good life? This broad question, central to the Ancient Greeks, still resonates today with more and more opinions piling in about how to live a longer, more just, healthy and productive life.
This course will take none of those answers for granted and will instead critically explore this question, weighing up different responses and encourage learners to explore how great thinkers from the past would approach it. As part of this, we will study two of the most important, yet accessible texts in the history of philosophy: Plato’s Apology and Crito.
