PHILOSOPHY AND THE ARTS ASSIGNMENT (TO BE HANDED IN UNDER DISCUSSIONS-Special tab Philosophy and the Arts)

Many philosophers have chosen to express philosophy in the form of dialogues, plays, novel, and other literary forms. Filmakers have often chosen philosophical themes as the focus of their messages on film. This section of the course allows us to see the relationship between philosophy and the arts.

This assignment is due by the end of Week 3 -by Sunday midnight (or before)

Here are some steps to guide you:
1. Choose a film, dialogue, play, novel, or visit a philosophical exhibit and write a short paper (500-750 words about your experiences.) Choose something you have not seen before. Summarize the main points of this experience.

2. Think of the relationship of the film, literature, or exhibit) to a branch of philosophy (e.g., ethics, metaphysics, epistemology, aesthetics, logic, social and political philosophy) or the ideas of a philosopher (in the western or eastern tradition including the feminist philosophers and the postcolonial thinkers covered in this course). You may draw from your knowledge of the philosophy from this course or other online or other research.

3. Draw some conclusions about the philosophical material you’ve experienced by showing how this may have contributed to your own development or understanding of a philosophical theme, debated issue (e.g., determinism vs. free will), or social/political contemporary issue. (Refer to (Encyclopedia of Philosophy) www.iep.utm.edu/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.)

In sum: your final post should have these three points covered and marked clearly.

Part 1: Summary of experience (Name the film, novel, etc. and describe the main points)
Part 2: Relation to philosophical theme or issue
Part 3: Conclusion about personal development and/or philosophical issue

Your own creativity in the form of poetry, literary/visual/musical expression, or other creative form I have not mentioned is most welcome.
