Personhood
Your task:
Your assignment is to choose one of the following topics or any other topic that we discuss in Phil 1:
1) Mechanisms of ignorance
2) Socrates, Plato, and the Allegory of the Cave
3) Truth and Gettier
4) Personhood
5) Representation: Art or Science
6) Feminism
7) Egoism
After you choose you are to create your own unique argument about how to apply this topic to any of the contexts that we have faced within the past year. Your paper can apply ANY of these topics APPLIED to one particular context (limit it only to one). For instance, over the past year, I have been attempting to apply a concept ‘place perspectives’ to the COVID-19 context (see your extra optional Zoom session on Personhood, if you’re interested in learning more).
