My Reaction to Transcendentalism After reading the Transcendentalist works of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau‚ I was surprised at my reaction to them. From what I had originally heard‚ the Transcendentalist works were boring essays. However‚ after reading them‚ I discovered that I can relate to many things that Emerson and Thoreau discuss in their papers. Though I liked Emerson more than I liked Thoreau‚ both of them impressed me with their ability to take such a strong stand on

INDIGENOUS PEOPLE REACTION PAPER WOW! After the symposium‚ I realized how lucky I am to be in a concrete house‚ not worrying if the strong wind will take it with all its might; to live in a more comfortable house with comfortable clothes on. Indigenous people’s always stressing the hell out of them searching for food everyday‚ they can’t even apply for a stable job here in the city or at least away from secluded areas where they live. On the other hand‚ I salute them for they’re always active

Evan Lovro English 101 2:00 Darin Halversen October 17‚ 2012 Reaction Paper My thoughts about the movie could be similar to other people’s opinions. The movie itself started out slow‚ I have noticed that with a lot of older movies like this one‚ it took a while for me to catch on to the point of the movie‚ or to figure out what it was about. Slowly the movie started picking up and it began to make more sense to me. There are a lot of characters that I had to write down on a piece of paper because

Social Studies Julie Shapiro “Crito” Reaction 10/14/12 The great Athenian philosopher Socrates believed in justice and overall fairness regarding the law. If a crime were committed‚ Socrates would rather take the punishment instead of seeking revenge. His morals consisted of accepting the scandal he had executed and not take vengeance. This differs from Hammurabi’s eye for an eye method. Hammurabi followed a path of abase payback and doing onto others what had been done to you. Socrates

6/25/2014 Philosophy 201 Reaction to Kant Kant Kant first draws close to differentiating between a moral choice and a prudent choice. A prudent choice is a choice used in good judgment and is rational. Kant has no interest in morality being rational. A law is a law and thou shall obey it. The moral law is absolute. Thou shall not lie‚ means exactly what it says‚ thou shall not lie. No ifs‚ ands or buts about it. There is no reason why a person should lie because it is our duty as moral

Reaction Paper 2 In the 4th chapter of “The Land Looks After Us” Martin starts by talking about a weather doctor that the tribe turned to for guidance after a total eclipse blocked out the sun. Though he was ill he helped and went into a trance which allowed his soul to find out what was going on. What he ended up seeing was a vision of god and all that neat stuff. After he became a prophet‚ I think what martin was trying to address with this story was that religion was not only spreading but
