Teaching Organisation This unit involves 150 hours of focused learning.

Christian belief depends for its plausibility upon a number of philosophical assumptions, concerning the nature of reason and experience, of language, values and self. This unit aims to introduce students to these issues with reference to recent discussion and relevant episodes in the history of philosophy. The focus of the unit will be jointly upon philosophical theory and upon the application of such theory to particular issues of religious concern.
