Jasper Jones is technically good in that it has a message and themes and all that. But the deeper meaning is so close to the surface that a five-year-old could tell you what Craig Silvey is really trying to say. So I guess it’s not really a “deeper” meaning at all‚ more like a “surface meaning.” As suggested by my “better” title‚ Silvey was very obviously inspired by To Kill a Mockingbird. It sometimes seemed like he was writing it as TKAM fanfiction with a bunch of major changes and twists‚ and

While the great philosophical distinction between mind and body in western thought can be traced to the Greeks‚ it is to the seminal work of René Descartes (1596-1650)‚ French mathematician‚ philosopher‚ and physiologist‚ that we owe the first systematic account of the mind/body relationship (Wozniak). As a key figure in the Scientific Revolution‚ Rene Descartes was one of the most intelligent men in his era. With his numerous writings and works‚ he allowed us to understand modern philosophy‚ the

Mary Ann Roxas T‚R; 9:50 AM Study Questions 2.1 1. According to Cartesian dualism‚ what is it to be in a mental state? - Mental states are states of an immaterial substance that interacts with the body. 4. What is Descartes’ argument from conceivability? - It’s conceivable that we can exist without a body but it’s not conceivable that we can exist without our minds. If we can no longer think‚ we no longer exist. We are thinking things‚ immaterial substances with no physical properties. 5. What

Emotional‚ spiritual. Some may hold that love is physical‚ i.e.‚ that love is nothing but a physical response to another whom the agent feels physically attracted to. Behaviorism‚ which stems from the theory of the mind and asserts a rejection of Cartesian dualism between mind and body‚ entails that love is a series of actions and preferences which is thereby observable to oneself and others. Expressionist love is similar to behaviorism in that love is considered an expression of a state of affairs

must exist. This is the new foundation – “I think‚ therefore I am.” Everything else in his argument is based on the “I think‚” but as a consequence‚ all the world consists of is Descartes’ mind and nothing else. This is a radical doubt. The new Cartesian foundation is not a metaphysical one‚ it is an epistemological one – the self‚ “I think.” Descartes has res cogitans – the idea that he is a thinking thing. He now brings about the criterion for truth‚ being that any clear and distinct idea is true
