Sharon Street, “Does Anything Really Matter or Did We Just Evolve to Think So?”
You choose only 1 reading listed above from Unit 4 for your final 1000 word essay.
In the first part of the essay, you explain the position of the author on the nature of morality. In the second part, you provide either a defense or criticism of the author you have chosen. Roughly, you want it to divide as 800 words for exposition 200 words for defense or criticism.
We are asking that either you make a case for or against the position you have chosen to discuss in your own words as clearly as you can within the limits of the assignment, as though you are writing to a thoughtful but uninformed outsider.
