Talk:Bachelor of Philosophy

message: I changed "At other universities, the term "Bachelor of Philosophy" refers to an undergraduate bachelor's degree in the philosophy of an academic subject" to "At other universities, the term "Bachelor of Philosophy" refers to an undergraduate bachelor's degree". The undergraduate degrees referred to in this section generally aren't philosophy degrees; they're just undergraduate degrees in a particular subject (science, maths, whatever) with a bit of a research focus.

thread_title:  Undergraduate B.Phil. at other universities 

message: I've no real objection to any of Jacquerie27's edits, though none of them constitutes an improvement, I think, and the insistence on full-form “it is”, etc., is rather antiquated (the Wikipedia style guide thinks that it's part of formal writing style, but academic books and papers have moved on (perhaps they're emulating legal language; I don't know).  I've reverted one, though: philosophy isn't a place, so “nowhere else” is a solecism. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 22:42, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Anne Conway (1631–1679) was an English philosopher in the tradition of the Cambridge Platonists, whose work was an influence on Leibniz. I rest my case. Jacquerie27 23:11, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: Er tu quoque would be closer. But I'm grateful for learning that philosophy has joined the trahison des clercs. From what I've seen of your prose, I'd advise you to read The Guardian (μη γενοιτο!) less and George Orwell more. "Politics and the English Language" would be a good place to start.

* Well, "academic conditions" in that document is ambiguous. For all we know it could just mean that the applicant isn't required to attain any particular *class* of degree (eg. he/she isn't required to get a first). I did the B.Phil, and I don't know of anyone who is doing, or has completed, the B.Phil without already having a university degree. But if you want to insist, fine. (I don't know what you think "graduate degree" means if not a degree taken by gradautes.) --163.1.159.21 00:41, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
