Description

Reflecting on traditional ethical issues as good and evil, value, duty, and purpose, students will discover the theme of responsibility which will be explored in three living religious traditions: Judaism, Christianity, and Buddhism, as well as in relation to two significant movements in contemporary ethics: Feminism and ecology. The course will raise the question of the nature of ethical reflection itself, its origin, and impact on contemporary discourse
