American Philosophy (School of Tomorrow)


Ongoing Heuristics for Teachers (Fall Term). Emerson influenced Nietzsche regarding the idea of Friendship. The idea of Friends anchors Quakerism and relates to the doctrine of equality (that of God within each individual). Echoes of Mithraism?

Features the Tetravolumes with Python minicourse (@thekirbster). This philo curriculum goes with computer languages more than with any propositional calculus or modal logic. We also read Synergetics to limber up our brains in anticipation of new intuitions.
