Course Description
This course aims to create a multifaceted conceptual awareness about the phenomenon of 'happiness', which is said to be the ultimate goal in life. The subject of happiness has been addressed by ancient and contemporary philosophers, psychologists and social psychologists for approximately 2500 years since the ancient philosophers. In this course, the concept of happiness, which has different definitions, leisure, meaning of life, pleasure, conscious awareness, flow, passion, success, values, purpose, material and human relations will be examined. Happiness will be discussed not as a result but as a process that includes uncertainties and negativities, emphasizing the importance of knowing the source of unhappiness. Students will be encouraged to design their own life journeys in the context of poetry, short stories and short films.
