Full Title: Ethical Traditions and the Good Life

Topic Description:

This course will offer a survey of the great ethical thinkers in a historical context. We will ask the basic questions of human ethical behavior, starting from "What is a good life?" We will study how such questions and answers have changed over time, and how different cultures have dealt with them. A particular focus will be on how western Christianity has addressed these questions in a rapidly changing world.
