Philosophy Essay #2

Order Description
Write a three to four page (750 -1000 words) essay. Pick an article from the list at Essay Resources on the course menu that has been written by one of the philosophers being studied throughout this course. You may continue an article that you started in the first reflection in Lesson 2. If you have questions, be sure to check with your instructor.

Choosing a “quote of” page is not acceptable. (A “quote of” page is a list of quotes from a particular philosopher.)
If you cannot find an article that you want to write about, ask your instructor for permission to choose another topic.
Some of these articles are quite lengthy. You may read approximately 700-1000 words of a new article or another section of your first article.
Summarize what you read and then write your own reflections. Consider the following: what you have learned in this class? Have your perspectives or ways of thinking changed or clarified? How do you feel about the article you read? How does it pertain to your life?
Be sure to cite your source.
