NOV 4L1

OF

A year ago, the two courses, Phil 451 (Kant), and Phil 452 (19th Century

European Philosophy), were approved by FACC. These courses were not

forwarded to SCUS at that time but were retained in your office pending

an explanation of the fact that they are to be 4 credit courses.

They are, of course, to be taught in seminar meetings 4 hours a week, and

the vector clearly reflects this. But this still leaves the question as

to why they are being offered for four hours rather than three. The simple

fact of the matter is that the amount of material available ; and worth

studying, on Kant is so vast that at other universities Kant courses are

often year-long courses. We try very hard in this department not to have

to offer courses spread over two semesters, and so will try to teach Kant

in one semester. But we feel that we cannot do so adequately in only three

hours. The same situation applies in the other case as well, where we are

trying to cover several philosophers - including Hegel, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard

any of whom could warrant a semester-long course on his own. Again, then,

four hours seems minimal.

The department plans to offer these courses in 87-1 and 87-3 respectively,

and so would like them listed in the 86 Calendar.
