Who Am I?


In this unit we explore the concepts of identity and self. What makes you, you? Do you have a soul? What constitutes consciousness? We explore these questions and more through the fantastical world of wizards and dragons in Ursula K. LeGuin's classic novel The Wizard of Earthsea. In addition to the philosophical implications of self and identity, we take a look at the psychological explorations of Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung.
