The study of formal logic has obvious and direct applicability to a wide variety of disciplines (including mathematics, computer science, linguistics, philosophy, cognitive science, and many others). Indeed, the study of formal logic helps us to develop the tools and know-how to think more clearly about arguments and logical relationships in general; and arguments and logical relationships form the backbone of any rational inquiry. In this course we will focus on propositional logic and predicate logic, and look at the relationship that these have to ordinary language and thought.

Philosophical traditions founded in ancient times continue to the present day and are an exciting part of our philosophic past. Ancient philosophers tend to differ from contemporary philosophers in the dazzling breadth and systematicity of their philosophies and in their efforts to live (not just think) philosophically. This sampling of ancient philosophy will include some of the choicest Greek, Roman and Chinese classics, with special emphasis on goodness and human nature (especially as these relate to human sympathy and affinity), the natural world and cosmos (especially whether and how goodness is “written in” to the world), challenges to materialism and purposelessness in nature, ideal governance and civic responsibility.
