Annotation -

The subject provides an overview of modern philosophy from Descartes to Kant with reference to problems of
systematic theology. The course aims to introduce students to the roots of European modernity in relationship to
the Christian tradition and show how its development gradually moved towards so-called “dechristianization” of
philosophical thought and Europe (and North America) in general. One of the key thinkers of this tendency was I.
Kant living in the 18th century, whose work is subjected to close scrutiny.

Consultation can be either in English, or in German.
