Essay topics<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

You must write your first paper on Kierkegaard.<\/span> Here are some broad
\nsuggestions for essay topics, keeping in mind that you can alter these topics,
\ncombine them, or even develop your own if you have an interesting idea:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7     
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>In the section \u201cPreliminary
\nExpectoration\u201d of Fear and Trembling<\/i>, Johannes de Silentio describes a
\npreacher whose oratory is contradictory: on the one hand, he scolds a copy-cat
\nfor wanting to do as did Abraham, describing him as abominable, offscouring of
\nsociety, possessed by the devil; on the other hand, he describes Abraham as the
\ngreatest. Given that there is no discernable outward<\/i> difference between
\nthese two people, how can one distinguish them and why the very different
\njudgment? What is at stake here? (You can also appeal to \u201cTruth as
\nSubjectivity\u201d if you are writing on this topic or, for that matter, any of the
\nother topics).<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7     
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>Johannes de Silentio
\nrepeatedly claims that being a knight involves movement<\/i>. Why is movement
\nso important? And why, above all, does faith go beyond resignation?
\nSpecifically, why does faith involve a double movement? What, philosophically
\nspeaking, is at stake here? <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7     
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>Johannes de Silentio provides an
\nexample, other than Abraham, to \u201cthink through\u201d faith: the tax collector. Why
\nis the tax collector an equally good exemplar of faith? Is he a good exemplar? Why
\ndoes Di Silentio appeal to this example?  <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7     
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>Problem
\n1 of Fear and Trembling<\/i> takes the form of a question: \u201cIs There Such a
\nThing as a Teleological Suspension of the Ethical?\u201d How does Johannes de
\nSilentio answer this question, or does he? And, if making yourself an exception
\nis wrong ethically speaking, then how can Abraham be great? Is Abraham an
\nimmoralist? Is Kierkegaard advancing a form of divine command theory? What is
\nat stake here?   <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Instructions
\nand criteria of assessment<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Choose
\none of the above topics (or develop your own) and write an argumentative essay,
\nwhereby you:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

(i)        <\/span>State
\nyour <\/span>thesis<\/span><\/b> explicitly
\n(\u2018My goal in this paper is to\u2026\u2019). <\/span><\/p>\n

(ii)        <\/span>Explicate the text (identifying,
\ncontrasting, and discussing the <\/span>arguments<\/span><\/b>
\nwhich relate to your thesis). <\/span><\/p>\n

(iii)       <\/span>Provide
\n<\/span>analysis<\/span><\/b> (with a view
\nto supporting your thesis)<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

You
\nshould draw from the texts examined in class, including \u201cTruth is Subjectivity\u201d
\nand Fear and Trembling<\/i>. There is no need to use any external sources
\nother than these texts. The paper should be double spaced, 5 to 6 pages long.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Here
\nare some questions you should keep in mind in writing your paper: <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Does your paper have a clearly
\narticulated thesis?<\/span><\/p>\n

Is the thesis supported by arguments?<\/span><\/p>\n

Are these arguments logically
\nstructured?<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you make use of the primary texts in
\ndefending your thesis? <\/span><\/p>\n

Have you anticipated potential
\ncriticisms of your position and demonstrated why your position is superior to
\nrival interpretations?<\/span><\/p>\n

Is your writing clear and to the point? <\/span><\/p>\n

Is your writing technically flawless,
\nfree of spelling mistakes and grammatical errors?<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you have proper documentation in a
\nconsistent style?<\/span><\/p>\n
