Assessment and permitted materials
Written final exam (90 minutes).
The exam for this lecture series takes place digitally in the format of a multiple choice exam with ten partially open questions. You may achieve partial points on a multiple-choice question provided you did not choose any of the wrong answers (this is to prevent a guessing-game). The assignment of grades is described below. By registering for this digital exam, you agree to this exam mode. A second, third or fourth exam date, which may also be carried out online, may differ formally from the first date or the previous dates.
The digital written test is carried out using Moodle. As a student you have to log in with your u:account and thereby confirm your identity. Additional identification methods are not planned.
Number of possible exams:
By registering for this digital exam, you agree to its exam mode. The number of tries for exams will be as usual (i. e. there are four possible examinations per course).
Examination supervision:
In the case of digital written exams, at least one competent person will be announced (on the cover sheet of the exam) who may be reached digitally before, during and after the exam and who is available for questions about the exam and any (technical) problems. If you have technical problems, you can also contact the ZID helpdesk.
Examination inspection:
Online exams can also be inspected by the student wondering about his/her grade. Students should contact their examiners.
Cheat:
By participating in the digital written exam, you declare solving all posed questions independently and without the help of third parties. You may make use of the texts provided in Moodle, but if you quote from them a correct citation is required. The test may be subjected to a plagiarism check (Turnitin). The teacher can also contact you for further oral questioning about the subject of the examination within the assessment period of four weeks. This can also be done on a random basis and without any specific suspicion of cheating.

This lecture course provides a systematic overview of philosophy in the so-called ‘Age of Reason’, the Enlightenment of the 18th century, and the nineteenth century. Typical discussions and problem areas of the philosophy of this period are treated by means of text excerpts. The starting point is the reception and criticism of scholastic Aristotelianism. The core topic of this term is the change of meaning of the concept of substance for modern philosophy. Special attention will be paid to the role of philosophizing women. Nevertheless, we begin and end with male philosophers: René Descartes marks the beginning, Henri Bergson the end.The contents of this VO-L will be developed in the form of a flipped classroom system: Students independently read the texts of the lecture units in advance and formulate their own questions; in weekly meetings in the lecture hall, the respective material of the unit is then discussed on the basis of these questions.
