SUMMARY:God Matters
DESCRIPTION:God Matters\nLed by R.J. Snell\nAccording to Thomas Aquinas\, some truths about God surpass the capacity of unaided human reason and require revelation\, while other truths are knowable by unaided\, natural reason. This seminar explores some puzzles of classical theism through reason alone\, without appeal to revelation or any particular religious tradition or authority. What’s the existence of God? How does God’s existence relate to God’s attributes—and does this work intelligibly? How does divine knowledge allow for human freedom? What about evil? \nReading a variety of texts and exploring a variety of questions\, the seminar explores whether or not classical theism\, as understood philosophically\, is coherent. \nReading prior to seminar is not required. Neither is religious belief. Open to all Princeton students\, whatever their commitments. \nLunch is provided\, as are all reading materials.

SUMMARY:Habits of the Mind
DESCRIPTION:Habits of the Mind\nLed by R.J. Snell\nWe tend to be familiar with the moral virtues—wisdom\, courage\, moderation\, and justice\, say—and many will know Aristotle’s articulation of the intellectual virtues\, but Aristotle’s intellectual virtues seem abstract and not especially relevant to our lives. Since we’re intellectual beings\, the intellectual virtues oughtn’t be alien to our well-being\, however. In this seminar\, we examine more contemporary texts\, including Hannah Arendt\, Simone Weil\, and Iris Murdoch\, on intellectual habits such as attention\, reading\, understanding\, and judging. Thinking\, it turns out\, is not merely a technical\, neutral matter of analytic capacity\, but a commitment to being in the world in a certain mode and way\, and we can have habits of thought contributing to\, or taking away from\, our flourishing. \nReading prior to seminar is not required. \nLunch is provided\, as are all reading materials. \n
