Outline (in English)

We study the elementary history of modern European philosophical thoughts. What we learn during the autumn semester is the thoughts of the significant philosophers from Kant to Nietzsche who worked from the end of the 18th century to the end of the 19th century. On what questions the philosophers have discussed and how they've answered them will be examined. Through these examinations we will be able to think more deeply than ever about the significance and the problems of the modern western civilization.
