Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe": Important Contexts
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The social and philosophical context that resides within the literary masterpiece of Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe" exemplifies the nature of individualism and how this notion is often misconstrued within society's confined boundaries of human behavior. To be unique within a world of sameness is a quest sought by many people; however, it is by way of such an objective that one becomes labeled as selfish and intolerant of commonly accepted methods. This negative connotation of individualism – which is to maintain an independence from the norm – has cast an even darker meaning upon striving to achieve one's own distinctiveness. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Dante’s Search for Truth in “The Divine Comedy” and Man’s Understanding of the Nature of the Universe
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper on Dante’s search for truth in “The Divine Comedy”. Dante’s “The Divine Comedy” tells of the central character’s journey through hell, purgatory and heaven. In hell, The Inferno, Dante is guided by Virgil whom shows him the sinners from earth and tells him of how they differentiate from those in purgatory. Dante’s questions about truth begin when he examines the sheer numbers of those in hell and continues until his revelation in heaven (Paradiso) at the end of the work. Acceptance of Dante’s well patterned universe however has been debated over the centuries as a possible explanation of the metaphysical nature of the universe. Dante insisted that his work not be taken as one of fiction and because of this many theologians applauded his explanation of a well ordered universe where man was punished directly for his sins. Others believe that the acceptance of Dante’s order of the universe is based on if man lives for his time on earth or if he lives for the life after. For those who live for today, man may either accept or deny Dante’s order or decide that man is not able to understand or should not understand the nature of the universe. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

David Hume and Human Understanding
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page report discusses the Scottish philosopher and writer David Hume (1711-1776). Hume’s thinking on morality is the concept of sympathy, which he views as the basis of interaction between people and the wellspring of human happiness. He then defines morality as the qualities that are approved in whomever they happen to appear and by virtually everybody else. As a result, he sets himself up in this “Enquiry,” to discover the broadest possible grounds for those approvals. He finds those grounds of approval in “feelings” rather than “knowing.” He determines that moral decisions are established as a result of moral sentiment rather than understanding. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
