The following are suggested prompts for written coursework. Aim for approximately 600 words per reflection. Start working on the reflection after the relevant week, and aim to get it to me at the end of the following week. Email me your coursework (preferably in word format) at ngabrielmartin@gmail.com
If you would like to produce a traditional research paper or any other type of academic or creative work instead of following my prompts, just get in touch with me.
Week 3 reflection: Describe a situation (from the news, film or literature, or your own life) from two different hermeneutic approaches. Why does the difference between these approaches matter?
Week 7 reflection: Which matters most: freedom or happiness? Explain why. What are the consequences of your view?
Course end reflection: Write a letter to a friend, telling them about some way that the course has affected your thinking.
