The module will introduce students from across the humanities to key theoretical and philosophical issues as they have been approached across cultural, geographical and historical contexts. Drawing on texts from across a range of global texts (from Aristotle and Arendt to Fanon, Marx and ¿i¿ek, for example), the module invites students to confront anew the fundamental questions of meaning and value that have vexed human beings down through the ages: what makes a meaningful life? What is my place in the world? How can theory help us navigate the world?
