Ideal State Three Parts
1,197 wordsEven after thousands of years Plato and Socrates teachings are as valid in today communities as it was in their times. Plato left us a blueprint etch in stone in becoming an idealistic human being and righteous community. Through Crito, Apology, and the Republic, Plato reveals that even though the unjust ideals may be enticing it will bring a just happiness. In book VII of The Republic, Socrates speaks with Glaucon about the analogy of "The Cave." This analogy represents humanity as being ignora...

Purpose Of Life Meaning Of Life
1,114 words... te. Arrogance Arrogance results from two things. First from capability of successfully managing one's occupation. Secondly from taking full credit for the success. Of course individual competence is necessary for success but does it account for every thing? If we think so, perhaps we are underestimating contribution of society and our luck factor for what we are. Man is a social animal. Without society he is nothing but animal. Yet many behave as if they are self made. Purpose of life Purpos...

I would advise thee, then, that thou with all speed get thyself rid of thy burden; for thou wilt never be settled in thy mind till then; nor canst thou enjoy the benefits of the blessing which God hath bestowed upon thee till then.

Sir Thomas Malory Sex And Violence
4,465 wordsThe Politics of Violence in Malory's Treatment of the Arthurian Legend By focusing, ostensibly, on sex and violence, Malory's rendering of the Arthurian legend becomes something quite distinct from the French originals. Roger Aschams complaint that only bold barrie and open manslaughter, may be found in the Works, seems to be well grounded, but such a reading tends to neglect the authors most essential themes. Why is violence such a fundamental aspect of these tales? Malory's interest in the Art...

Save His Life Sir Gawain
2,586 wordsLoyalty, courage, honor, purity, and courtesy are all attributes of a knight that displays chivalry. Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is truly a story of the test of these attributes. In order to have a true test of these attributes, there must first be a knight worthy of being tested, meaning that the knight must possess chivalric attributes to begin with. Sir Gawain is self admittedly not the best knight around. He says I am the weakest, well I know, and of wit feeblest; / and the loss of my li...

Gawain And The Green Knight Sir Gawain And The Green
2,330 wordsA Critical Look at Sir Gawain and the Green Knight From the first time I read Sir Gawain and the Green Knight I have been troubled by the question of whether Sir Gawain was right or wrong in lying in order to keep the girdle and save his life. He was torn between the preciousness of his own life, and the sanctity of chivalry and its codes. He was forced to ask himself what he valued more: his reputation or his life? Many scholars have struggled with this question for centuries, as well as the qu...

Dante And Virgil Violent Acts
1,636 wordsWhy One Sin is Worse than Another Most Christians these days see every sin as equally bad. In other words, no one sin is worse or should draw worse punishment than another. In Dantes The Inferno, however, this is not the case. In The Inferno, the deeper one delves into Hell, the worse the sin that has been committed. The punishments that the souls incur are representative of the sins they committed in their corporeal state of being. Sins that affect others are considered worse then those that on...
