PHIL 260 Film and Philosophy

This course uses film to explore the human search for meaning through analysis of philosophical issues and questions as expressed in a wide variety of worldviews. Focus is on major theories of reality (metaphysics), knowledge (epistemology) and value (axiology) and their relevance to the formation of personal and cultural values, including the application of these values in ethical decision making.  The lens and the canons of film studies are tools of analysis.
