Presentation
The online course on the philosophy of Leonardo Polo is designed for people who have an interest in this thinker but who do not have a guide to begin their study, or who want to progress in the knowledge of his thought. Given that the thought of this contemporary Spanish author is immense, we offer an introductory course that allows you to discover in a general way his contributions and the innovation that they represent for contemporary philosophy.
Leonardo Polo's thought not only proposes solutions to philosophical aporias of different historical moments: that is to say, it dialogues with modernity, offering answers to its interests, but also connects it with classical and medieval thought, which it expands. In this way, it offers a rigorous and hopeful alternative to current philosophy, which is somewhat in crisis because it has serious difficulties in posing the great theoretical questions.
Polo's philosophy also offers a theoretical proposal which, without ceasing to be philosophical, gathers and deploys Christian inspiration, effectively showing the harmony between Christian faith and intellectual research, thus recovering the value of philosophical research for the appropriation of faith by the believer and for its realisation in practice.

Methodology
The methodology is the closest to face-to-face that can be achieved in the framework of an online course. Throughout the course, the teachers will hold a total of 20 live Zoom sessions with the students (synchronous online classes).
The programme is structured in 8 units or modules. The content of each module is scheduled to be taken over two weeks. Each module consists of:
-
class pre-recorded lecture - approximately 1 hour long - to introduce the key points of each module, and at position by the lecturer in charge of the module.
-
PDFs, for reading and individual study, with a selection of texts by Polo on the contents of each module and explanatory texts by the teacher.
-
Questions from students via a forum.
-
Two synchronous classes (by Zoom live), each lasting approximately one hour and average , in which the teacher will dialogue with the students, clarifying the questions posed in the forum of each module.
-
Multiple choice test on the notions of the module.
In addition, throughout the course:
-
In between, there will be four other synchronous classes (live on Zoom) where global aspects of the Course and its subject will be discussed. They will be at position by the directors of the Course and Juan A. García, Full Professor of Philosophy of the School of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Málaga.
-
As part of the final evaluation each student will have to write a short article on one of the aspects of the course.
This course aims, therefore, at acquiring a global understanding of the main areas that Polo studied and on which he made original contributions: Anthropology, Metaphysics, Theory of knowledge, Ethics and Human Sciences.
And to understand Leonardo Polo's contributions, the fruit of his intellectual search, about the truth of man and his relationship with God, with others and with the world.
This will make it possible to identify and order other areas of knowledge from the broad horizon provided by Polo's thinking.
It will encourage critical thinking, introducing a demanding and rigorous form of philosophical enquiry.
skill Finally, this course is also aimed at acquiring a research skills that will enable the writing of academic articles and will provide the instructions to undertake more extensive research.
