I have come across two lists of topics, both intended to address the
fundamental questions in thinking about our world and existence.

Announcing a new book series on central problems of philosophy, John
Shand <[log in to unmask]> presents the following list of titles
planned:

>>
Analysis                     Relativism       Rights
Modality                     Action           Value
Paradox                      Truth            Ontology
Realism and Anti-Realism     Meaning          Perception
Time and Space               Self             Knowledge
Free Will                    Mind and Body    Universals
Causation and Explanation    Scepticism       Artificial Intelligence
                                                                   <<

Giving general information about the BASICS-L mailing list, where the
most basic, universal principles of nature (i.e., philosophy) are to
be discussed, Ronald Jump <[log in to unmask]> suggests these topics:

>>  Is there good behavior, and if so why do it?
    How do you know?
    What exists?
    Can laws of nature ever change?
    Should people co-operate, and if so how?
    Is the cosmos compelled or allowed to be as it is?
    What is illusion?  What is error? <<

Are these two approaches to fundamentals:
-- almost the same?
-- similar?
-- quite different?
-- different only in addressing different audiences?
