Lecturer and child-of-the-80s Star Wars fan John Donaldson is responsible for turning the films into philosophy studies. He started a classroom-based course last Star Wars Day (May the fourth) and was surprised at who was interested. “We wanted to make philosophy more accessible and get people interested by focussing on pop culture,” he said. “We have had a 12-year-old, retirees, some students, and a lot of professionals. “Lots of people from around the world were interested, so we created an online course.”
