QUICK STUDY NOTES


Introduction to the Philosophy of the Human Person
Grade 12

A. TOPIC: PHILOSOPHICAL ANALYSIS AND SYNTHESIS

B. KEY CONCEPTS:
 METHOD is a procedure or process for attaining an object: such as a
systematic procedure, technique, or mode of inquiry employed by or proper to
a particular discipline or art a way, technique, or process of or for doing
something.
 WISDOM is being able to decide what is true and right based on your
experience and knowledge
 SATIRE is a literary work holding up human vices and follies to ridicule or
scorn; trenchant wit, irony, or sarcasm used to expose and discredit vice or
folly
 A PRIORI is knowledge independent of experience
 A POSTERIORI is a knowledge that proceeds from experience.
 PROPOSITIONS are statements about what is and either true or false.
 Analysis or the method of resolution, also known as the method of
discovery is for discovering the truth.
 Analysis primarily deals with paying consideration to the issue you want to
resolve. The bigger issue is broken down into smaller and simpler concepts in
order to understand it better. It is assumed that once it is made smaller and
simpler, it will become more understandable. It is your determination to
examine truths that would lead you to the knowledge you are in quest of.
 The method of analysis includes the following:
1. Start with what is better known to what is less known
2. Investigate with particular examination rather than general
3. Introduce clear and evident rules or maxims
 Synthesis or the method of composition also called the method of
instruction is for making the truth understood by others once it is found.
 Synthesis proceeds a posteriori by demonstrating the conclusion
methodically and clearly so that one cannot deny the conclusions. The proper
deduction of the consequences is shown as it is contained in the process.
Propositions are broken to their smallest elements for ease of understanding
are now combined together to form a cohesive whole.
 Rene Descartes converses that analysis explains the true way by means of
which the thing in question was discovered methodically and as it were a
priori, so that if the reader is willing to follow it and give sufficient attention to
all points, he will make the thing his own and understand it just as perfectly as
if he had discovered it for himself.
