Description
Ancient and Medieval philosophers believed that the key to a good life was happiness. But what do they mean by that? And how can that knowledge be applied to our lives today? This course examines ideas about the good life that emerged before the modern world. Upon successful completion of the course, students will demonstrate their ability to explain and analyze theories of happiness. They will also articulate their own thoughts on “the good life†in light of the philosophical views studied.
