I'm heavy into philosophy. read a lot. currently re-reading and checking notes on Utopia by Thomas More with translation/intro by Clarence H. Miller.


up to 500fg to anyone who write's an original philosophical analysis of this book. MULTIPLE PAYOUTS. I'll be judging it and will be mainly looking for things that challenge the book, like:

What is Raphael Hythloday's explanation of Utopia supposed to represent?

In what way, does Utopia portray freedom? Is it a just society?

How can it might help the people? Does it help them live any happier, better, more examined? (Examined as in what Socrates would often refer to as "A life un-examined, is not a life worth living")

required (for me too):
must be original work
no less than 100fg per payout
shoot for like min: 100 , max: 750
if its really good, ill give more.
must be able to respond if i question you


You are not helping me with my academics in any way. I'm a Ethics 180 TA and will be moving to help in Medieval Philosophy. Want to maybe pull a couple of these books up and see what general public idea has.
GL, let me know what all you seeker's of wisdom think :thumbsup:

books you may have already read and i'll accept as participation (pm me to ask so we can discuss):
Confessions: St. Augustine, Translation: Garry Wills
any of Plato's Five Dialogues: Hackett 2nd edition
Plato's Symposium
Origins of Philosophy: Hyland
