Dear Fellow American,

Our "Introduction to Western Philosophy" course is now available on DVD. And you can reserve your copy today.

Aristotle wrote: “All men by nature desire to know.”

The pursuit of knowledge about the most important things has been the central activity of Hillsdale College for over 179 years.

In contrast, most American colleges and universities have embraced the “postmodern” idea that knowledge, like truth, is relative—that there are no real answers to questions like “What is the best kind of life?” and “What is the right way to act?”

In 1931, Winston Churchill wrote an essay where he imagined a future where mankind had secured a life of great pleasure, wealth, and convenience. But, Churchill wondered, would that be sufficient for happiness?

What did they know more than we know about the answers to the simple questions which man has asked since the earliest dawn of reason—’Why are we here? What is the purpose of life? Whither are we going?’

No material progress, even though it takes shapes we cannot now conceive, or however it may expand the faculties of man, can bring comfort to his soul.

Hillsdale’s free online course, “Introduction to Western Philosophy,” examines just such questions as Churchill poses.

This course pursues answers to these questions by studying the arguments of great Western philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, Immanuel Kant, and C.S. Lewis.

And this 14-lecture course is now available in a special DVD box set perfect for viewing in your home or a small group. You might also find it useful for a homeschool curriculum or personal study.

The “Introduction to Western Philosophy” DVD box-set can be yours with a tax-deductible gift of $100 or more to Hillsdale College. Reserve your copy today using this secure link:
