1. Plato I. In the first lecture we will focus on the founder of idealistic philosophy - Plato. The theory of ideas is an ontological doctrine, but for Plato it has implications for political, aesthetic, and ethical philosophy. 2. Plato II. The theory of ideas is translated into concrete political ideas that will eventually have a significant influence in the history of state systems. 3. Aristotle I. Plato's most important disciple sharply defines himself. He rejects almost all of his teacher's metaphysical doctrines, in many cases going in a completely opposite direction. In Aristotle's relation to Plato we trace one of the fundamental tensions of philosophical thought at the moment of its birth. 4. Aristotle II. Aristotelian ethics as the basis of a common-sense approach to human existence. 5. Descartes I. Modern thought is characterized above all by a profound paradigm shift. In his mathematized conception, Descartes turns attention away from the content of knowledge towards a method that can guarantee the plausibility of its contents. This turn towards the subject will be significant in terms of later thought. 6. Descartes II. Analysis of readings from Meditations on First Philosophy. 7. Hegel - Marx. Hegel embodies the pinnacle of idealist philosophy in his work. His dialectic finds a special application in the ideas of the young Marx, who would be one of the most influential and quoted political philosophers of the 20th century. 8. Husserl. Phenomenology as a new beginning. Cartesian Meditations. 9. Henri Bergson and his conception of time perception. 10. Wittgenstein I. The turn to the investigation of language as the only gateway to the world. The logico-philosophical treatise and the logical-positivist philosophical conception. 11. Wittgenstein II. Philosophical investigations as a deconstruction of the positivist conception. The concept of the language game. 12. The thought of postmodernism. Resignation to the search for an exclusive perspective. 13. Philosophy and artistic creation. Conceptualism as a tool for shaping reality.
