PHL 430 - Nietzsche and His Readers (4 Cr.)

(Formerly PHL 330) (GCR Humanities and Interdisciplinary Studies area)
This course will be a thorough examination of Nietzsche’s throught, especially as it concerns morality, religion, life, art, Western philosophy, truth, human value(s), nihilism, and human agency. In addition to exploring Nietzsche’s ideas, we will conclude the course by examining the ways in which Nietzsche has been read by later generations, including possibly in later European philosophy (Heidegger, Deleuze, Kofman, Irigaray), political philosophy, feminist philosophy, and/or critical race theory. Prerequisite: Either two philosophy courses (one at the 300-level), or permission of the instructor. Shuster
