PHI 334 MORAL PSYCHOLOGY

An exploration of what motivates human beings to pursue what they do, how concern for one's own good is connected to regard for the good of others, the relationship between free will and responsibility, and whether it makes sense to speak of activities that are "objectively" worthwhile or of there being "ultimate ends" in life. Consideration of the conversation among contemporary American philosophers who speak to these issues associated with the existentialist tradition. Works by Harry Frankfurt, Susan Wolf, and J. David Velleman.
