In Modern Philosophy, a nine-hour course, we explore the development of modern philosophy from the 17th to the 19th century. We examine the pivotal roles of thinkers such as Francis Bacon, René Descartes, John Locke, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, David Hume, Immanuel Kant, Georg Hegel, Karl Marx, John Stuart Mill, and Friedrich Nietzsche. The course highlights the contrasting approaches of empiricism and rationalism, the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and individual liberty, and the Counter-Enlightenment's critiques of these principles, culminating in the ongoing influence of these ideas in the 19th century.
