    Sample Reflection Journal Entry Lani Akamai Lesson 1.1 One of the new understandings I made this week about a shared literacy lesson with my class is that they really enjoy poetry. Before I read the poem Covers to them‚ we discussed the new words and concepts.

    In the second part of “The Stranger‚” Meursault is on trial for the assassination of an Arab man. Camus simply utilizes the trial as a metaphor for life to promote his notion of the absurd. Camus believes that the absurdity of our inherently meaningless life is our quest to find meaning or validity in a world where there is no absolute truth. Similar to our ambition to find meaning in our life‚ the trial attempts to search for Meursault’s motive to murder the seemingly innocent Arab. As the case

    This paper seeks to compare and contrast the philosophical views of two great philosophers‚ namely Albert Camus and Franz Kafka. The works involved in this argument are Kafka’s The Metamorphosis and Camus’ The Outsider. The chief concern of both writers is to find a kind of solution to the predicament of modern man and his conflict with machines and scientific theories. Death‚ freedom‚ truth and identity are themes to be studies here in the sense of absurdity.   Kafka was born in Prague in 1883.

    Ben Dunlap “The Life-long Learner” The guest lecture with Ben Dunlap on life-long learning was great and kept me wanting to watch.
