Royce Writes Moral Insight Loyalty

Before spelling out why I think Royce's
loyalty-centered ethics is best understood as part
of his response to the problem of evil, let me
indicate what I take to be other clues that Royce
was thinking about loyalty in conjunction with the
struggle against evil for many years prior to the
publication of The Philosophy of Loyalty in 1908.
The structure of The Religious Aspect of
Philosophy is such that the practical precedes the
religious. In Book I, Royce discusses the moral
insight, which can be...

Rhetorical Marker In Beowulf Example Of A Rhetorical Marker Story
691 words
The story of Beowulf is marked by rhetorical
markers throughout. These markers are
strategically placed by the author in order to
give the story teller of old a break from his

could not read for themselves. The person telling
the story used these rhetorical markers as a break
in the story and his thought process, similar to
todays commercials during a TV show. The one main
difference, though, is that rhetorical markers
gave us insight into the story,...

Emerson Feels Man Emerson Individualism World
1,501 words
Emerson's transcendentalism is essentially a
romantic individualism, a philosophy of life for a
new people who had overthrown their colonial
governors and set about conquering a new continent
by their own lights. Though Emerson is not a
technical philosopher, the tendency of his thought
is toward idealist metaphysics in which soul and
intuition, or inspiration, are central. The new
American experiment needed every idea within its
reach. Taking a practical and democratic, yet
poetic interest in a...

Made Themselves Ready Light And Dark
2,848 words
American literature reflects life and the
struggles faced during existence. Symbols are an
eloquent way for an author to create a more fully
developed work of art. The stories themselves tell
a tale; however, an author also uses symbols to
relay his message in a more subtle manner.
Nathaniel Hawthorne was one of the earliest
authors to use symbols as an integral part of his
plots. This is clearly seen in both The Scarlet
Letter and in The House of the Seven Gables. The
use of symbols causes an a...
