课程概述

Speculative metaphysics is challenging, but this course will whet your appetite for it, because it explains fundamental metaphysical problems and views in terms of what you can find in your kitchen and what happens in it when you cook and enjoy food. Here are the 8 bites on the menu. - The first module 1 explains that metaphysics is about the ingredients and recipes of the world, i.e., which kinds of entities exist and how they relate to one another. - Modules 2 and 3 invite you to reflect on whether the properties of ingredients -such as their shape and weight- are separate from and if so, how they come together in the ingredients. - Modules 4 to 7 are about cooking: its most important ingredient is time and most cooking consists in causing changes to the ingredients over time. Yet some ingredients persist: although they undergo changes, they remain the same. Moreover, cooking minimally involves putting two or more ingredients together, so that they compose a whole. Hence modules 4 to 7 deal with time, causation, persistence and composition respectively. - Finally, the last module touch on the smells, tastes and other qualitative aspects of our experiences when enjoying food. Bon appétit!...

The course is worthwhile in that it organizes and explores ideas we tend to pick up along the way without analyzing our speculations. The good analogy is a bit overworked. The professors English pronunciation is unclear, and the subtitles/transcription don't interpret him correctly. Since the course involves an enormous amount of obscure academic jargon, this can be a problem. There's also a tendency to overemphasize jargon and definition at the expense of ideas and meanings. Still, it's a worthwhile overview of metaphysical thought and how we can apply it in daily life.

Solo una opinión con respecto a la entrega de información: La traducción automática de Google del curso impide la comprensión cabal de algunos conceptos y contenidos. La, a veces, deficiente pronunciación del inglés del profesor es parte de ese problema. Tal vez es necesario conseguir el libreto y traducirlo en forma y contenido de manera más acuciosa para que el subtítulo sea más preciso.

Increíble curso vas a aprender todo lo relacionado con la metafísica el único pequeño problema es que hay algunos conceptos bastante complejos y que en ocasiones se sienten poco aburridos
