ITOE, Part II | 2024
Lead Faculty
Harry Binswanger
ITOE, Part II continues the intensive study of Rand’s theory of knowledge begun in ITOE, Part I, and covers the later material in Ayn Rand’s Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology: Leonard Peikoff’s essay “The Analytic-Synthetic Dichotomy” and the Appendix to the second edition. (The 200-page Appendix consists of excerpts from three of the four “Workshops on Objectivist Epistemology,” that Rand conducted in 1969 -1971.) This is an intermediate to advanced course (“300 level”) and presupposes successful completion of at least two other philosophy courses, including ITOE Part I.
Prerequisites: To enroll in this course students must have completed an Objectivism Seminar course. ITOE, Part I is strongly recommended but not required.
Audit the Class
Auditing is a great choice for students who want to attend live lectures, ask questions, and participate in some discussions, but do not want to submit assignments.
A typical auditor is a busy professional or retiree, who finds our courses enriching and seeks to learn from our faculty as a hobby. You do not need to apply to audit, simply pay the tuition fee and you will be automatically enrolled in the course.
