Writing Assignment
The writing assignment for the class serves as the final for the class. The student will select a divisive topic that
has not yet been covered in our class discussions, and then conduct research about how this topic is covered
in the media. The student will analyze both sides of the debate, and will then offer a determination of whether
or not mediation is possible. The writing assignment must be submitted using APA style to Blackboard.
We began this class with a foundation of the U.S.’s founding documents. From there, we have discussed how
Americans get their news and form their opinions, and we have dug into various issues that divide the
American public. Those topics have included thoughts on the Second Amendment, the recent Burwell v. Hobby
Lobby ruling, and the role of the federal government in higher education (among others).
In this assignment, the student will have the opportunity to objectively write a paper on another divisive topic.
Prepare and submit a minimum (7) page paper including the body (5 pages), coversheet (1 page), and
reference page (1 page).
For each topic, you will locate a minimum of six sources from various news outlets. These readings should
come from different viewpoints, as you will be examining how the topic is reported on and why each side holds
the opinion that it holds. As we have practiced on the discussion board, you will read the various articles, and
will explain why each side views the issue in the manner that they do. To do this, you will need to consider the
following:
What (or who) informs each side’s opinion?
Do you detect the influence of any of the U.S.’s founding documents (or the words of the Founding Fathers) in
these opinions?
Are the articles offering equal coverage of all sides’ opinions of the topic, or are these opinion pieces?
Most importantly, you will address this question:
Can a mediated position be reached on this issue?
Students will remember that their own personal opinions should be withheld from their final papers. Both sides
of the issue should be covered equally – I will be looking for objective coverage of both sides of the issue in
your submitted paper. Ultimately, you will be presenting both sides’ viewpoints, and offering suggestions for
mediation

The Symposium with a psychoanalytical theoretical framework

/in /by

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to write an essay with a thesis that is supported with evidence.

Texts

Slavoj iek Courtly Love, or, Woman as Thing
Carl Gustav Jung The Principal Archetypes
Platos The Symposium.
Topic

Psychoanalysis posits that the thing we want is not really the thing we want. The theory seeks to uncover our hidden desires and expose their roots so as to understand our behavior towards others and ourselves. Psychoanalysis is probably the closest of the theories we’ve explored in this class to Plato’s The Symposium because both are mostly about desire.

Writing Assignment

Using either ieks or Jungs text, answer the following:

What can we learn if we read The Symposium with a psychoanalytical theoretical framework?

Directions

Please type three to four pages of double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font
Use one-inch margins
Include an original title 
Include a thesis with one claim and one rationale
Quote from iek or Jung and Plato
For this essay, write from third person perspective
Avoid second-person perspective
Tips

Responding critically in this context means you look closely at logic, rhetoric, theory, metaphor, analogies, symbols, language, gender, structures, opinions, beliefs, feelings, the mind, the setting (the context), the culture, and any other linguistically charged letter, word, or phrase to answer the question above.

Suggested Outline

Begin by introducing the author (Plato), the title of the text, and a summary of how he utilizes language, structures, logic, or patterns.
Then, clearly state your thesis at the end of your introduction.
In the body of your essay, introduce the author (either iek or Jung), the title of his text, and then provide your reasons to support your thesis (make your thesis believable).
You should clearly state and develop one reason per paragraph.
Remember to provide specific evidence (quotes) from the text(s). Let the quotes support your answer to the question, not the other way around.
Conclude your essay by echoing your thesis and leave your reader to believe how or why it is important or not to read The Symposium through a psychoanalytical theoretical framework.
