Almost every day, we hear about someone performing a violent, heinous, even wicked act. And each time it happens, even before we know what happened, we are certain of one thing: we are nothing like the criminal. But how can we be so certain? We are, after all, all human.
Professor Daniel Breyer takes us on a fascinating philosophical trip into many of humanity’s deepest and darkest concerns in Understanding the Dark Side of Human Nature. Our hidden and delicate underbelly – our negative, yet all too human, side – is our dark side. Many of us may find it simpler to avoid delving into the darker elements of ourselves and our environment – the pain we witness all around us, from real-world events to the entertainment we consume. But the fact is that unless we confront the entirety of what it means to be human, we can never completely comprehend ourselves or appreciate our profound longing for meaning and purpose in our lives.
Thinkers from all over the world and from all times have explored the dark side of human nature, which is why this course will take a cross-cultural approach, studying ideas from Hindu, Buddhist, Christian, and secular traditions. This cross-cultural approach will help you experience mankind from as many angles as possible, allowing you to make more progress toward discovering answers that can be applied across cultures and periods.
The power of questions, one of philosophy’s most powerful tools, drives this course. Some of the issues we’ve all considered: why do so many individuals perpetrate violence against others, and why is there so much suffering in the world? Professor Breyer offers some intriguing potential answers to many of our most troubling problems.
