Metaphysics is concerned with very general questions about the objective nature/structure of reality. In this course we will tackle four foundational metaphysical questions, through the lens of contemporary analytic metaphysics: (i) what is it for something to be possible or impossible? (ii) do the natural laws of our world leave any room for free will and/or moral responsibility? (iii) what does it take for a person to persist from one time to another (e.g., from childhood to adulthood)? (iv) what is the nature of time?
