01Historical philosophy foundations and philosophical commentary
This integrated study guide follows shared history-of-philosophy foundations across historical periods and philosophical text analysis. It does not establish a current regional PAU author list, official works, paper format, rubric or difficulty calibration. The Ancient and Medieval block asks you to reconstruct doctrines rather than recite biographies. You need Plato's theory of Forms and its epistemological and political consequences, Aristotle's hylomorphism and virtue ethics, Augustine's account of interiority, evil and grace, and Aquinas's synthesis of Aristotle with Christian theology.
