Paper For Above instruction

The assignment requires selecting a scholarly article written by a philosopher studied in the course, then reading approximately 700 to 1000 words from that article, summarizing the content, and providing personal reflections. The reflections should address what has been learned, any changes in perspective, personal feelings about the article, and its relevance to one’s life. Proper citation of the source is essential. The list of potential articles includes classical works by Aquinas, Aristotle, Descartes, Epictetus, Heidegger, James, Kant, Kierkegaard, Locke, Marcus Aurelius, Marx, Mill, Nietzsche, Plato, Socrates, and Wittgenstein. If the desired article is unavailable, students should seek instructor permission to choose a different topic or article. The core task is to engage critically with the reading, connect it to personal understanding and life, and articulate insights gained through the course.

In crafting the essay, include an introduction that presents the article and its author, a body that summarizes the key points of the selected excerpt, discusses the philosophical concepts involved, and reflects on its significance. Conclude with your personal thoughts on how the article has influenced or clarified your perspectives on philosophy and life. Use academic language, cite sources properly, and ensure the essay fulfills the 750–1000 word requirement.
