ppr

 

 

Founded in 2001, the department represents an integrative approach to the study of general philosophy, political theory and religion (PPR). In the work of PPR scholars, familiar questions of metaphysics, epistemology, ethics and political theory serve as guides to the investigation of classic Western texts and the work of contemporary scholars, as well as to traditional Jewish works such as the Bible, Talmud, Midrash and later rabbinic literature. By studying the Western philosophical tradition alongside classical Jewish sources, the department provides a unique environment for philosophical investigation and historical synthesis.
