Write a paper on any philosophical topic of your choice. (get your topic approved by me!) The goal of your paper is to explain a particular philosopher’s views on a particular philosophical topic (e.g. Descartes’ view on epistemology), or to discuss a particular philosophical problem and the different ways it has been attempted to be solved (e.g. the debate between empiricist and rationalists in regard to knowledge). The paper is an opportunity for you investigate and explore philosophy in an academic way. What it should NOT be is just a report on the life and ideas of a particular philosopher.
