Welcome to PHL277/PHL477 Life, Death and Meaning (PHL277: 4 Points; PHL477: 4 Points )
 
 
School of Social Sciences and Humanities  

 

School: School of Social Sciences and Humanities
Unit Description: Questions of meaning and how we fit into the world often seem empty and outdated. Science and technology provide the dominant framework for thinking about who we are and what matters in life. Material possessions seem to be the only measure of life's success. Is it possible to speak of the meaning of life? Is the ancient concern with the soul meaningful to us? How can we think about death? What is the connection between responsibility and a meaningful life?
