Metaphysics is the area of philosophy that asks questions about the fundamental nature of what exists. This course is an introduction to some of the puzzles and problems that have animated both historical and recent work in metaphysics. We will begin with general consideration of the status of metaphysical questions: Are metaphysical debates substantive, or are they mere verbal disputes? We will then turn to considering various approaches to a number of metaphysical problems, focusing on themes such as persistence, composition, modality, and fundamentality.
