Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to make students aware of the importance of the role of philosophy in the discourse of kinanthropology and to distinguish it from scientific modes of inquiry. The main themes of the course are: In relation to the topic of the dissertation, one can study sub-issues related to the different dimensions of philosophical kinanthropology (in the approaches of ontology, axiology, noetics and ethics), e.g. Bodily and existential movement in an anthropological context; body, corporeality and corporeality; the spiritual dimension of health in relation to kinanthropology; religiosity and human movement; the cultivation of movement as an authentic mode of human existence; free and disposable time in the character of human temporality; ancient ideals and their postmodern transformation (areté, kalokagathia, paideaia, Olympism); play and fair play; ethical aspects of doping. However, the refinement depends on the choice of the problem under investigation and the specification of the dissertation.
