Please use your own thoughts. I need it by tomorrow noon. Only quote from the reading sources I provided.
Write a 5-7 double-spaced and typed paper on one of the following topics. In each, you are asked to state and explain the authors’ views on the subject. You are also asked to spend at least one of the pages explaining and defending your own view of the matter. Accuracy, clarity, and evidence of careful thinking, as well as the cogency of your position are the important features in these essays.
Be sure to use direct quotes to reinforce your interpretations. (and properly cite sources; plagiarism will not be tolerated). Make sure to have at least a 5-page length paper (one line at the top of the 5th page doesn’t count; nor does enlarging the font!)
Outline what Susan Wolf interprets as a meaningful life. How does she divide what is of real worth versus “intuitively inappropriate” and presumably meaningless activities? How does she try to combine both subjective and objective dimensions of meaning in her approach? Why does Christine Vitriano criticize Wolf’s stance? Does Vitriano offer weighty criticisms such that Wolf’s main distinctions fail to hold real water? Can you think of ways to demarcate meaningful versus non-meaningful pursuits? (Make sure to use specific examples). If there is no way to offer such a distinction, are people left rudderless? Could this lead to problematic subjective interpretations of what it means to live a meaningful life?
