- This course is an introductory exploration into the nature of Philosophy at a personal and global level. Students will explore one of the most mysterious and enduring of subjects in the history of human culture whose name, ‘philosophy’, does not mean the ‘the study of’ something, but rather the ‘love’ of an elusive and exclusively human experience, ‘wisdom’.
