This seminar explores how major theories of human personality—from classical Western and Eastern traditions to Marx, Darwin, Skinner, Sartre, modern cognitive psychology, and artificial intelligence—seek to explain our thoughts, desires, actions, virtues, and flaws. Through discussion and application of these theories to contemporary figures, we will consider how personality frameworks shape our understanding of the modern world and offer insight into addressing current global challenges.
