How is juggling like being a good person? What does the trapeze have to do with free will? What does circus have to do with truth? Intended for students with little to no experience in either circus or philosophy, this class uses the acquisition of circus skills as a springboard for basic philosophical inquiry. This class is fully participatory : we won't just be learning about the circus, we will be learning how to circus. Each full week will be divided into two classes: one in a movement space, where students learned a physical circus skill, such as aerial arts, juggling, or acro- balancing, and the other in a classroom setting where students investigated various philosophical topics in metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, logic, and more.
