PHLB30H3 F Existentialism, Summer 2024
[Coming Soon]

PHL275H1 S Introduction to Ethics, Summer 2023
What is morality, and why should we care? Doesn’t our disagreement about ethical claims suggest that morality is all just relative, anyway? This course explores these questions and more while introducing students to key ethical theories such as deontology, virtue ethics, consequentialism, and ethics of care as plausible responses to “the challenge of relativism”. The course also introduces students to the activities of philosophical writing and analysis, with a particular focus on argument reconstruction and evaluation.

PHL388H1 F Literature and Philosophy, Summer 2022*
This upper-year course pairs two of existential philosopher Albert Camus’ most influential works: his essay, The Myth of Sisyphus and his novel, The Plague.  Read together, these texts advance Camus’ view that ‘philosophical revolt’ (living passionately in spite of life’s inherent meaninglessness) is the solution to the ‘problem of suicide’ (the problem of whether life is worth living, given its meaninglessness). As such, the course is a philosophical and literary journey from nihilism into optimism; from anxiety and grief into hope. Themes analyzed include freedom, absurdity, the good life, and death.
