Poetry Poetry has changed tremendously since the

satisfaction, a state of well-being and
contentment are the more outstanding elements of
happiness. Happiness, known more formally as
felicity, is good. A state of well-being

to himself. Kant? s objection to ethical theories
that use this idea emanates from the fact that it
extends human reason, one that determines good
will and good conduct, outwards instead of
inwards, reason being automatic, inherent in an
individual. The above doctrin...
