Course objectives
Students will investigate the intellectual structure of the selected texts of early modern philosophy and science. They differentiate particular attitudes, introduce reasoning and arguments behind these attitudes and explain relation of individual attitudes to the period intellectual, social and cultural context. They interpret the most important parts of the text and they introduce the content structure of the text. They analyse and compare philosophical attitudes and ideas on the basis of reading primary and secondary sources; thanks to this they distinguish and formulate presuppositions and consequences of philosophical ideas of the early modern period.
