Learning objectives

Learn the theoretical rudiments of philosophical hermeneutics.
Acquire knowledge of key concepts of the contemporary philosophical lexicon

Prerequisites

A good knowledge of the history of Modern Philosophy (Hume, Kant, Hegel) and of Contemporary Philosophy with attention to Phenomenology and Existentialism may be useful (but not essential).

Course unit content

In the first part of the course, the project of a phenomenological ontology in a hermeneutic key will be presented in its general features, as introduced by Heidegger in Being and Time (1927) and Kant and the Problem of Metaphysics (1929). As a counterpoint to Heidegger's proposal, we’ll analyse Deleuze’s interpretation of Hume's philosophy (Empiricism and subjectivity, 1953).
