This class will introduce students to a distinction between two kinds of sciences: those with the aim to deduce natural laws, and those with the aim to explore and understand specific phenomena in the world. The class will start with Kant and Herder, a teacher and student pair with divergent views on what the task of the philosopher is, and end with Franz Boaz, who specifies the characteristics of the two types of sciences one may engage with. Students will learn to interpret individual texts and to put texts in conversation with each other.
