This course will focus on some major questions in metaphysics and natural philosophy. We will approach these topics from two different perspectives: the Aristotelian-Thomistic perspective and the contemporary analytic perspective. Some issues we will discuss include: metaphysical composition of material objects and their persistence conditions; the analysis of compositional, qualitative, and substantial change; possibility and necessity; causation; the nature of time; and the problem of universals. Prerequisite: PHIL 220.
