The Library is pleased to bring you access to the following collection of online videos...
The Examined Life Series is a collection of online videos providing an in depth analysis of the wisdom of the Western world.
The Examined Life studies the "Great Questions" that have intrigued philosophers from antiquity to the present. Using writings of past philosophers and interviews with more than 50 contemporary thinkers, the course episodes underscore how these great questions - What is art? Does God exist? What is the meaning of life? Does the end justify the means? - still reverberate in society today.
The collection includes the following videos:
What is philosophy? What is human nature?
Is mind distinct from body? Is there an enduring self?
Are we social beings? What is real?
How do we encounter the world? Do we have free will?
Is time real? Does God exist?
Can we know God through experience? Is reason the source of knowledge?
Does knowledge depend of experience? Does the mind shape the world?
How Does Science Add To Knowledge? Does Science Give Us Truth?
Are Interpretations True? Is Morality Relative?
Does The End Justify The Means? Can Rules Define Morality?
Is Ethics Based On Virtue? Moral Dilemmas...Can Ethics Help?
What Justifies The State? What Is Justice?
What Is Art? What Is The Meaning Of Life?
These titles are available via the Library's discovery services and as a collection on the Databases page
