Evaluate the Aristotle’s Doctrine of the Mean.

Evaluate the Aristotle’s Doctrine of the Mean.

1. Your paper must include:

  • statement of the problem you are trying to solve.
  • A clear statement of the solution you propose: i.e., you must state a thesis.
  • Arguments supporting your thesis.

In the (relatively) short papers that you will be writing in this course, in the first paragraph of the paper you should:

  • State the problem that the paper will address.
  • State your thesis, and briefly explain the steps by which you propose to establish that thesis.

It is crucial that the thesis be stated in the first paragraph of the paper!!!

The body of the paper should consist of the arguments that establish the thesis in the first paragraph.

I think some subheadings should be added to make the article clearer

First Paper Topics

Write an essay of no more than 1350 words (typed, double-spaced, twelve-point font) on one of the following topics. (The word limit should be taken seriously: a clear, coherent, complete paper shorter than 1350 words is perfectly acceptable: any words beyond the limit may not be read.)

1. Explain Aristotle’s doctrine of the mean. Using your own life as a test case, explain how and to what extent this doctrine either provides or does not provide guidance when deciding what you ought to do. Compare this level of guidance with either Kant or Mill.
