Half Hour Hegel: The Complete Phenomenology of Spirit Play
This is a sequence of videos providing a close reading and commentary on G.W.F. Hegel's early masterwork, the Phenomenology of Spirit.
In each 25-35 minute video, I read paragraphs from the text verbatim, and then in front of my home studio blackboard, engage in some discussion of the main concepts discussed in that passage, provide any needed historical context, and outline any connections to other passages.
This is a fairly substantial undertaking -- producing and releasing one or two 25-35 minute videos per week, we project this series will require at least three years of work on my part. The goal is ultimately to provide something like an online lecture course covering every part of the Phenomenology, leaving no portions out, as a resource for students, lifelong learners, and even interested instructors.
I'll be using and referencing the A.V. Miller English-language translation of the Phenomenology, which is available here: http://amzn.to/1jDUI6w

Course Lectures: A Course in Ethics Play
Lecture/discussion videos from my Ethics class sections. We start with discussing Emotivism and contrasting it with a Natural Law and Virtue Ethics Perspective, then move into Virtue Ethics, Egoism, Might Makes Right, and Contractarian moral theory as depicted in Plato's dialogues. After that we discuss ancient Hedonist and Stoic theories, then move into Utilitarianism with Bentham and Mill, followed by Deontology with Kant and Ross. Ethics of Care follows, as well as a return to Virtue Ethics with in-depth study of Aristotle, finishing with study of Thomas Aquinas' Natural Law moral theory
