Annotation
The subject of the seminar will be the pivotal work of one of the most important political philosophers of the 20th century, Leo Strauss, Natural Right and History (NRH). Shorter sections of text will be selected for joint reading; students get acquainted with the whole prescribed part in advance.
Based on the reading (and with the use of secondary literature) they will write a seminar paper, the topic of which they will consult with the teacher in advance.
