授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか）Outline and objectives
Philosophy & Aesthetics
Whether in nature or art, humans love beauty. In fact, appreciating and taking pleasure in beautiful things seems central to what it means to be a human. But what is beauty? What is art? Does art need to be beautiful? What is the value of art and beauty? What’s the relation between the value of beauty and other values, like moral value? Why is art so important to us? These questions are the primary concern for the branch of philosophy called “aesthetics.” In this course, we will investigate these questions in depth by exploring various texts on aesthetics from the history of philosophy. Philosophers surveyed in this course include Plato, Aristotle, Francis Hutcheson, David Hume, Immanuel Kant, G.W.F. Hegel, Arthur Schopenhauer, Friedrich Nietzsche, Leo Tolstoy, and Clive Bell.
到達目標Goal
This course has four primary learning goals. First, students will learn about various and diverging views on aesthetics. Second, students will improve critical thinking skills when engaging with abstract reasoning. Third, students will improve their reading skills when confronting nuanced and challenging text. Finally, students will improve their communication skills to present complex ideas clearly and confidently in written and spoken forms.

Classes will begin with a one-hour lecture with interactive slides. For the first four meetings, a class discussion will follow the lecture. For meetings 5-13, student presentations will follow the lecture. Each student must present once throughout the semester. Student presentations apply the course’s various theoretical topics and ideas to analyze the students’ choice of some piece(s) of art. The instructor will provide more detailed instructions on the online learning management system. In addition to presentations, there will be a final exam in the last meeting. The final exam will consist of short and long essay questions. Students will receive written feedback on the presentation and exam.
