Anthropology II

(2 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

Students will here engage several of the major questions we find in the contemporary literature. Some of these questions, dealing also with contemporary philosophy of mind, include personal identity and animalism, reductionism-physicalism, animal communication-language, ; metaphysics and human evolution; metaphysics of sex/gender; issues concerning human death; and mind-computer problems. Students will construct Thomistic frameworks and strategies for use in successful dialogue with some of the contemporary thinkers working in these areas.
