  • Form Of Government Society
    431 words
    Mankind declares its independence from other species of animals through the use of reason. The mind of man creates all the difference as he is able to choose his own way of life. However, with this gift from nature comes a negative factor that each individual human must face. As discussed by other philosophers, man is a self-interested creature. If every man does whatever he wants in life, society would be destroyed. In order to keep society away from chaos, a government needs to be enforced in ...

    Consciousness is understood in a variety of ways. In one belief, a person is conscious when awake, but unconscious when sleeping or comatose. Yet people also do things requiring perception and thought unconsciously even when they are awake. A person can be conscious of their physical surroundings, pain and even a wish or fantasy.

  • B C E Human Nature
    1,033 words
    Confucianism Mencius vs Hsun Tzu Is man naturally good or is he evil? This question has not only been pondered by countless philosophers, but also by religious leaders around the world. Most often a single religious faith believes in either one or the other, and often these beliefs tend to create a certain world-view which dictates much of the faith. However, in some cases such as the one I will be discussing, two religious dignitaries do not agree and the repercussions of this can be found thro...

  • The Allegory Of Cave By Plato
    720 words
    The Allegory of the Cave by Plato (1) Plato's allegory of the cave has been interpreted in many different ways by philosophers who belonged to different philosophical tradition. Therefore, it is almost impossible to be sure as to what exactly Plato had in his mind, while describing a situation of two prisoners being locked away in the cave and being forced to make judgments about objective reality by observing reality's shadows. However, given the political context of Plato's work, we can sugges...

    1,858 words
    Does Darwinism undermine Cartesian Dualism? In order for us to analyze the effect, caused by Darwinism on mind and body theory of Cartesian Dualism, it needs to be briefly mentioned what these two theories stand for. Although one of them is clearly philosophical and another is associated more with Biology as a practical science, it appears that Darwinism has many properties of just an abstract system of beliefs, so, in a way, it is more appropriate to talk of more advanced philosophical system u...

  • Baroque Era Movie Hamlet
    919 words
    Non-teleology is the idea that the world is what it is because of chance, accident, or blind mechanism. This means that the there is no purpose in the world now or in history. I think this is comparable to what went on in the film Hamlet, which we watched in class. I think that Hamlet felt that there was no purpose in the world for him. Another example of non-teleology from our class work is the Romans. They were hedonists and believed in just having a good time while they were on earth. Non-tel...

    # 2 Explain how Augustine s conception of freedom relates to compatibility and to freedom in the sense of autonomy. According to Augustine, Human beings are endowed with a power that he calls the will. He emphasizes the will to being the center of freedom. Unlike other philosophers, who are determinists, Augustine, who has a libertarian view, sees our will as free choice. So for whatever we may choose to do, we become solely responsible for our actions which are caused by external factors instea...

Is their life after death? Etc. What I failed to realize was that not only does Philosophy answers these questions but it also gets us to question things that we never once thought...

  • True Happiness Ordinary People
    495 words
    Plato tells us that the each human soul contains three elements: reason, spirit, and appetite. Appetite consists roughly of instinctive drives, spirit in acquired desires such as those for honor and self-respect, and reason in the ability to acquire knowledge (including moral knowledge). Having made this simplified distinction, it can be seen that Plato believes that humans are born unequal. He draws the conclusion that one shall have enough reason to overrule the spirit and the appetite. And na...
