1- I want someone to know how to do this kind of paper it should focus on explaining ONE claim that your chosen philosopher makes. I don’t want any historical facts.
You need to pick one claim—preferably quote it!—and then develop that claim. Why does he believe it? Why should anyone else? That is the substance of the assignment.
2- ONLY TWO sources you will use and you are required to use at least ONE ANCIENT SOURCE.
Format: 8.5″x11″ pages, 1″ margins, Times New Roman font, double-spaced lines, indented the first line of each paragraph. Substantial errors in spelling or grammar will result in a reduction of grade. Student name and page number may be placed in a header within the margins.
Content: Your first paper should summarize the position, on a matter of philosophical import, of a philosopher who lived between about 600 B.C. and 1350 A.D. This need not be a philosopher we have or will discuss in class. This should be done in approximately 600 words. (the class book is Pojman, Classics of Philosophy, so be sure to talk about philosophers not mentioned in the book) . I WILL ATTACH PHOTO OF THE philosopher’s NAMES IN THE BOOK to avoid using them.
The philosopher you choose should be one who does not entirely agree with the position summarized in your first paper. In other respects your paper should be much the same as your first: you should not try to summarize everything the philosopher claims–just one claim should be summarized in depth. It may be a metaphysical claim, a value claim, or an epistemological claim, but it should be one of those! If you can figure out how to navigate this map of refinement and disagreementLinks to an external site( https://www.denizcemonduygu.com/philo/browse/.), it may prove quite helpful to you. Just be wary of the dates, many philosophers on that list are not included in the appropriate time range! You may also find the Standford Encyclopedia of Philosophy links to an external site (https://plato.stanford.edu/.) useful. Your paper should cite few sources–obviously you should cite the original work of the philosopher you are summarizing, but beyond that you should not use more than one or two other sources. Your bibliography should not be included in your word count. I do not have a citation format preference beyond “consistent.”
The paper will be graded across five areas:
Did you identify a specific argument about metaphysics, values, or epistemology from a philosopher of the appropriate time period? (0-20 points)
Did you clearly and accurately summarize that argument? (0-40 points)
Did you cite the original text(s) in which that argument was made, along with no more than two other academically appropriate sources? (0-20 points)
Is your paper grammatically correct, proofread, formatted as instructed, and otherwise linguistically coherent? (0-20 points)
