      Content of Learning Activity

      The course presents an introduction to the philosophical and ethical approach, through a problematic approach to philosophical specificity as a reflective activity, a journey through the history and concepts of philosophy, as well as an openness to contemporary ethical questions. The course is structured through an approach that is both thematic and chronological. The first part is devoted to the question "Why philosophy?" ". After an introduction which allows to situate the discipline and its stakes through contemporary resources, it approaches the ancient philosophy. The second part examines the question "How do we think?" It is approached from philosophers of modernity, both to expose it as a break through which the categories of thought we inherit are forged, both to look at the way in which its various authors approach the issue of knowledge. The third and last part addresses the question "What to do with philosophy today? It is devoted to an opening towards contemporary ethical and political questions.
