short essay questions

(NO REFERENCES)
INSTRUCTIONS:
This assignment consists of two short essay questions. The main intent of these questions is to ensure that you have a sound grasp of the fundamentals of the material presented in this unit. To that end, there is a 3 to 4 page (1000 words) limit for this question. The quality of your answer is based on your exposition of the competing positions, your comparative analysis of those positions and, lastly, your argument in support of the position you defend.
As with all the assignments in this course, these questions are not designed to be a “research” questions. There is no requirement to get material from external sources such as websites like Wikipedia. In fact, doing so can count against you. The point of your essays is to formulate the course material and develop your critical response. You can do this by working with the course material and developing your own ideas about the issue. The essay is simply your opportunity to set that out in paper.
So, the material you need to successfully complete this assignment can be found in the online course materials available through the course website. There may also be some reading material that is part of the hard copy course readings package. You can find this information on the course materials section of the course website.
Questions: (The total possible mark for this assignment is 100 marks.)
1. In the Meditations, Descartes makes a clean sweep of his beliefs and begins again. Explain Descartes’ critical application of his method of doubt and the way he builds knowledge on a new foundation. Can Descartes’ rationalist account of knowledge of external objects withstand the criticisms of Locke’s empiricism? In the end, which epistemological account is more plausible, Descartes’ rationalism or Locke’s empiricist account? Explain. (70 marks)
2. In your own words, concisely state the problem of induction as formulated in our course readings by either David Hume or Bertrand Russell. Explain why it is especially problematic for empiricist accounts of knowledge. Should it be considered a serious problem? Explain why or why not. (30 marks)

compare two poetry works given in the description

compare two poetry works given in the description
Write an essay on one of the following topics. Keep in mind that this is primarily a poetry assignment, and you are expect to not only to quote your evidence, but to analyze it in detail. For this reason, you should concentrate on one fairly brief example from each author and refer to other passages only insofar as they allow you to support or develop your argument.
1. Thoreau, Emerson and Whitman both address, directly or indirectly, what they take to be a crisis in the relationship between the citizen and his or her government. Compare Whitman to one of the two other authors on this issue and evaluate through close analysis the solutions, political and literary, each proposes.
2. Discuss the poet’s relation to nature in the work of two of the following three authors: Emerson, Whitman, Dickinson. What are the similarities and differences in their ideas about the relation between nature and poetic form? How are the differences related to differences in style?
3. Dickinson and Emerson extol solitude; Whitman is often a poet of the city and the crowd. Discuss the social and/or urban element in Whitman’s poetry in comparison to one of his contemporaries. Is Whitman’s sociality a rejection of Emersonian ideals or an extension of them?
(pick any of the 3 and create a thesis based on the topic, must answer the questions addressed within the topic)
The works are:
Henry David Thoreau, “Resistance to Civil Government”
James Madison, Federalist 10
Ralph Waldo Emerson, “The Poet”
Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass: “Song of Myself”
Emily Dickinson, Poems, 319-20, 396-413, 764
