Philosophy and Film Credit Hours: 3 Course Description: Exploration of ways in which films can do philosophy and illustrate or more generally give expression to philosophical theories. Although some discussion of the nature of cinema as a form of art and of what makes an individual work of art important may take place, this is not a course on aesthetics or film theory. Most of the time in the classroom will be devoted to examining ways in which ideas are expressed in a corresponding manner in movies and philosophical texts. Semester Offered: Fall Spring Level: Undergraduate
