Nietzsche On Life
[ send me this paper ]
Life is a matter of interpretation. Reality is a
combination of perception and definition. The individual does not have
to abide by the shared meaning packages of society in order to know
meaning in their lives. This 5 page paper asserts that 'life is what
the individual and, by extension, society, makes of it' is the essence
of Nietzsche's thoughts on the advantage and disadvantage of history for
life. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Nietzsche's 'The Antichrist'
[ send me this paper ]
A 25 page argumentative essay on the issues and Frederich Nietzsche's predictions surrounding pity, negation, nihilism, and science on the antichrist in society (all who are not Christian). The writer argues that some of Nietzsche's points were valid for the antichrist, particularly as they relate to pity, negation and near annihilation. And, while there is little evidence that the development of science suffered from Christianity in this century, as posited, many of the people who perform the acts of science are just as Nietzsche would predict—empty voids without intrinsic instincts or senses about their actions. The paper concludes that despite the book's emotional and circular format and sporadic truths, it has value for at least one group of readers—the one for which it was written, the Hyperboreans.

Locke & Machiavelli / Politics and the Interests of Man
[ send me this paper ]
Machiavelli and Locke both considered the nature of government and man's individual interests as they relate to governmental structures. Machievelli's idea of fortune and Locke's 'state of nature' concept both shaped the theorists arguments about the purpose of political life. It has been posited that for Machiavelli, politics is an unpredictable arena in which ambition, deception and violence render the idea of the common good meaningless, while Locke would argue that political or civil society exists only to preserve the rights of the individual. It can be argued that for both Machiavelli and Lock, political activity, then, becomes merely a means of satisfying selfish ends. This 8 page paper considers the nature of this argument, reflects upon the elements presented in Machiavelli's Prince and Locke's Social Contract, and evaluates their importance for understanding the underpinnings of government. No additional sources cited.

Machiavelli's Discourses On The First Ten Books Of Titus Livius
[ send me this paper ]
The
Prince is Niccolo Machiavelli's most famous work, however, the
Discourses on the First Ten Books of Titus Livius provides an addendum
to the principles set down in The Prince that illuminate and expand on
his political philosophies. This 3 page paper argues that it is
Machiavelli's most basic tenet that nothing renders a republic more firm
and stable than to organize it in such a way that it is propelled by the
energy generated from the interaction of the subjects with the
mechanisms provided by the state and the social institution of religion.

The Truth of Machiavelli's The Prince
[ send me this paper ]
Machiavelli's representation of truth in The Prince is rooted in a cynical view of political and personal power. He uses the tactics of confusion and misrepresentation to advance his concept of the ideal state. Machiavelli combined the traditional, or classical, and Christian thought that was prevalent in philosophical circles of his day for the purposes of presenting his concept of power. This 5 page paper examines the concept of power, truth and imagination from Machiavelli's viewpoint in The Prince. No additional sources are cited.

Theories of History/Marx and Comte
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper that contrasts and compares the theories that Marx and Comte developed regarding history. The writer argues that these theories were radically different because each looked at a different aspect of human development across history. Marx's theories concerning history dealt with the economic connection between society and the means of production. Comte's theories, on the other hand, dealt more with the way in which a society perceives reality. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
