Discuss philosophical Taoism, focusing on the Laozi (or the Tao te Ching) and/or Zhuangzi

Write a three page paper on one of the following two topics. Use MLA style, and double space the assignment; add to this a works cited page with at least four sources, preferably not from online sources but from library sources. Part of your grade will be dependent upon your choice of good sources. 1) Discuss Confucianism, focusing on one of the following topics: a) On becoming fully human; b) On education; c) On the ideal political system. These topics are all interrelated so while focusing on one you may still briefly discuss the others. A paper on Confucian view of political philosophy might contrast the Confucian views with Taoist views on that topic. However, be careful not to turn in a paper that is a general comparison of Confucianism and Toaism. That is far too broad for three pages. 2) Discuss philosophical Taoism, focusing on the Laozi (or the Tao te Ching) and/or Zhuangzi. Check the library for sources. Online sources that are acceptable include the following. The encyc

Aquinas and his ideas about human nature, ethics, and law

Write a paper that engages with Aquinas and his ideas about human nature, ethics, and law. Your paper claim should pertain to the issues raised by the prompt, but do not use a “direct” answer to a prompt question as your paper claim. Which system of law would your prefer: a system of simple laws or a system of complex laws (like we have)? Why?. This paper asks you to compare the functions of law in Aquinas and Confucius. We seem to live in a legal system closer to the one Aquinas envisions than the one Confucius does. Is this a good thing for us as citizens? Why? Consider: Should the law be only comprehensible to experts? In both systems, the law educates citizens; in which one can it actually do so? Can a system of complex laws educate citizens? Does the complexity of our laws reflect the complexity of our world? If so, should we “trade-off” a complex system of law for the benefits of our complex world? Why is this “trade-off” worth it? How could you argue for this “trad

- They are five (5) to seven (7) pages, double-spaced. - They must have a thesis paragraph that indicates clearly what your argument is, and how you will develop that argument. - They must engage at least one of the texts and films substantially from the week. By “substantially” I mean going in depth in your analysis beyond what we do in class, and quoting the text when appropriate. - use evidence, key terms, and an in depth analysis as support instead of as the argument itself.
