You are to write a 2-3 page double-spaced, 12-point font, essay analyzing a printed journal written by an actual pirate from the late seventeenth century. You may choose one of the four selected in attached file or Exquemelin book. Ask yourself what this document teaches us about the nature of piracy in the period the text was first printed. You should choose a document, skim through it first to get a sense of what it is about, and then focus on a specific part that you would like to analyze for your paper. Think carefully about why this author would have wanted to have his story published and why a reader might have purchased the book or what use it might have been to them. A good paper will focus on a particular subject that seems important to the text. For example, you might ask what Lionel Wafer’s journal tells us about how Englishmen understood foreign cultures. You might ask what William Dampier has to say about nature and why would a reader in 1697 find that interesting. You might ask what Exquemelin teaches us about the nature of violence in the Caribbean. Do these authors try to defend the fact that they were pirates, or do they simply ignore the issue altogether? Find one specific point that fascinates you and focus on explaining it based on specific evidence in the text.

Watch the film “I Am Shakespeare: The Henry Green Story” and write a critical analysis of the film. The purpose of these papers is to strengthen your critical thinking skills with regard to how violence is portrayed in the media. For the paper, answer all of the following questions completely based on your viewing of the assigned media: 1) What would you surmise to be the main risk and protective factors for violence as discussed in this movie? Per our discussions on intersectionality, the socio-ecological model, and as exemplified in the Wilkins’ “connecting the dots” article, describe and organize them by level: individual, relationship, community, societal/structural. Name at least one per level. Consider our class content focused on intersectionality in your response. 2) Violence always involves power differentials of some sort. Describe the power dynamic(s) at play that supported the violence described. (Remember, power can come in many forms.) 3) Given the power dynamics that supported this violence, can you think of any way that power might be disrupted to prevent or reduce this type of violence moving forward? What are the suggested, implied, or demonstrated solutions to this violence based on this movie? Describe how you came to this conclusion based on what you heard/saw. 4) Based on your understanding of this topic from class lectures and readings, what key risk and protective factors and also solutions for violence do you think were missing and could have been brought into this story to better broaden viewers’ understanding of this issue. 5) All media, including documentary films, highlights a particular view or perspective. What did you think about the perspective of this film? Did you feel it was an accurate portrayal or was there anything problematic? Why?

History of Ethics: Comparative Study Understanding history is important for help

/in /by

History of Ethics: Comparative Study Understanding history is important for helping us to identify patterns that influence not only our intellects but also our feeling, both of which contribute to the choices we make and the actions that follow. Margaret MacMillan is a brilliant Canadian historian whose book and lectures both fascinate and inform us. MacMillan’s book, History’s People: Personalities and the Past, is a compilation of the material presented in the CBC Massey Lectures which were presented on CBC Radio’s Ideas series in 2015. The first chapter in this book, Persuasion and the Art of Leadership, will be used to help us understand the importance not only of history but, more specifically, the history of philosophy and ethics. The history of ethics is no less important than world history; in fact, ethics is influenced by politics, religion, culture, and science and technology. MacMillan recounts the personalities of three historical figures – Otto von Bismarck, the man responsible for establishing the German Reich in 1871; William Lyon Mackenzie King, the dominant political leader and Prime Minister of Canada spanning the period 1919 to 1948; and, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States who served from 1933 until his death in April 1945. Here are three quotes from these men that were cited by MacMillan in her book. Otto von Bismarck – “If I am to proceed through life on the basis of principles, it is as if I had to walk down a narrow path in the woods and had to hold a long pole in my mouth.” Mackenzie King – “The extreme man is always more or less dangerous, but nowhere more so than in politics. In a country like ours it is particularly true that the art of government is largely one of seeking to reconcile rather than exaggerate differences – to come as near as possible to the happy mean.” FDR (regarding entering WWII) – “this nation will remain a neutral nation, but I cannot ask that every American remain neutral in thought as well. Even a neutral has a right to take account of facts. Even a neutral cannot be asked to close his mind or his conscience.” What you are to do for this assignment is to choose one of the philosophers listed below and respond to the following questions. Write clearly and concisely. There are no word/page limits but your responses must demonstrate a mastery of a particular aspect of the history of ethics. Use Internet encyclopedias, materials posted to Blackboard, or other relevant materials to help guide your writing. Plato Hume Aristotle Kant St. Thomas Aquinas Mill Hobbes Nietzsche Descartes Sartre Using the quote from one of the three historical figures, compare (positively or negatively) the philosopher you have chosen re: their persuasive or leadership capabilities to that historical figure. What lasting influences on ethics today can you identify from your study of the philosopher you have chosen?
