The lectures are an introduction to that part of philosophy, called “practical”, which is concerned with actions and things in their neighbourhood (e.g., desires, decisions, intentions, policies). Practical philosophy asks how to describe and explain these items, but also how to assess them – most notably, how to assess them as rational or irrational and how to assess them morally, as morally good or bad or morally right or wrong.
There is only one kind of exam associated with these lectures, a written final exam. The exam will take place on one of the Thursdays towards the end of the lecture period.
There will be a wealth of additional information about the lectures as the summer term approaches. This text about the course has been written in January 2020. It will be up-dated in Moodle. Versions of this text that you do not read in Moodle may well be out of date.
