How Does A Particular Intentional Mental State, Such As A Belief Or A Desire, Come To Have Its Particular Content?
[ send me this paper ]
To conjure a concept is to bring about thought; however, the question as to where and how that thought originated continues to be a critical debate within philosophical circles. Is mankind merely a pawn in a grander, more extensive interplay of intentional mental states like beliefs or desires that exist only because of external influences, or do people truly harbor an internal, ethereal knowledge that serves as the foundation of content? If externalist theories of content are true, it seems as if a person could be wrong about what he or she comes to believe. However, such theories and methods used to pose the externalist threat to self knowledge, along with responses to them that claim self-knowledge and externalism are compatible, may well provide a better understanding of how the argument for internalism has just as much influence - if not more - within the quest for a convincing conjecture.

How One Great Philosopher Can Miss The Point Of Another Great Philosopher's Work

How the Political, Social and Educational Influences During the Lives of Burke, Locke, Rawls, Nozick, Mill and Dewey were Reflected in their Later Works
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper on the historical context in the lives of Edmund Burke, John Locke, John Rawls, Robert Nozick, John Stuart Mill, and John Dewey. Edmund Burke, John Locke, John Rawls, Robert Nozick, John Stuart Mill, and John Dewey could all be said to have written highly influential works within their lifetimes but in addition, many of their later works were also reflective of the political, social and educational environments in which they were raised. In an examination of the lives of these men when they were all in their twenties it can be shown that the political climates in which Burke and Locke were raised, the social and political movements which occurred during the lifetimes of Rawls and Nozick and the educational environments of Mill and Dewey were all highly influential on their theories and later reflected in their writings. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Human Nature -- Comparing Machiavelli and Hobbes
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page essay discusses the author’s perspectives regarding the thinking of Niccolo Machiavelli (1469-1527), Italian historian, statesman, and political philosopher, and Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679), English philosopher and political theorist, shared one distinct similarity . . . they and their theories were generally viewed with mistrust and hostility.
