Philosophy AS/A2 Level

UPDATED 20140331 10:46:01

Philosophy is both exciting and disturbing, exciting because you will confront a range of strange new ideas and disturbing because those ideas will challenge many of your firmly held beliefs. Philosophy will suit students with open, enquiring minds, who want to explore questions such as Who am I? Does life have any purpose? Is my life just a dream? Do I have any free will? Young people aged 16-18. AS LevelYou will consider the possibility that physical objects do not exist and question whether there is anything in the universe that we can be certain about. We investigate Descartes' famous claim `I think therefore I exist.£A2 LevelYou will explore the concepts of consciousness and self-consciousness, and consider questions like: 'Are human beings simply biological machines?'. We study Nietzsche£s theory of morality and political philosophy.
