Would you like to participate in these lectures? If so, please go to their Moodle page: https://lms.sulb.uni-saarland.de/moodle/course/view.php?id=6722
We'll meet every Thursday on campus, beginning after Easter: first session on Thu 21 April. (We'll make up for the 'missing' first-week session later.)
The Moodle page will provide important additional info throughout the term. No need to read the text below; go to Moodle instead.

The lectures are an introduction to that part of philosophy, called "practical", that is concerned with actions and things in their neighbourhood (e.g., desires, decisions, intentions, policies). Practical philosophy asks how to describe and explain these items, but also how to assess them – most notably, how to assess them as rational or irrational and how to assess them morally: as morally good or bad or morally right or wrong. There is only one kind of exam associated with these lectures, a written final exam. The exam will take place on one of the Thursdays towards or after the end of the lecture period (and then again – a second opportunity – on one of the Thursdays before the lecture period of the winter term 2022/23). There will be a wealth of additional information about the lectures shortly before or first meeting. This text about the course has been written in January 2022. It will be up-dated in Moodle. Versions of this text that you do not read in Moodle may well be out of date. These lectures are open to everybody, no registration required. If you have access to the UdS Moodle system, you're all set; just click on the Moodle course page of these lectures there, and you're on board.
