1> Compare the story about Kingston's aunt told by Kingston's mother, to the stories Kingston herself tells. How are they different?

2> " You must not tell anymore...what I am about to tell you," Kingston's mother tells her at the essay's opening. The rest of the essay, of course, is Kingston doing just that. What might her purpose be? Rhetorically( the writer's arrangement of the material), what is the effect of this strategy on the reader?

3> Think about the issue of individual identity and group identity: In this essay, how, and why, has group insisted upon the priorities of its own definitions of its members' "selves." Recall an instance when your " group self" was in conflict with what you felt as your personal self---something distinct from your communal sense of "I."

2> Why does Atwood list all the parts of the female body?

3> What do you think the writer's purpose are?

3. Swift: modest proposal

1> "A modest proposal" is an ironic essay: the author deliberately writes what he does not mean. What is the real thesis? Is there more than one?

3> Would it be possible to read this essay as a serious proposal?

4. Krauthammer: saving nature but only for man

1> In paragraph 2, do you think the author has done a good job of adequately framing the problem? Are there any key terms that you would like to see defined? What are they?

2> In paragraph6, the author talks about sacrifice and a price: Clarify how these terms might be understood.

3> In paragraph 7, Krauthammer dismisses a whole spectrum of religion as "mere sentimentality." Do you find his dismissal justified?

[url removed, login to view]: the value of philosophy

1> Russell references different mentalities: how might be the " practical mind" and the " scientific mind" view the study of philosophy? Why would they view it so?

2> "Russell mentions that philosophy is concerned with"... a critical examination of the grounds of our convictions, prejudices and beliefs." Examine philosophically one of your own beliefs: pushed to their extreme, what are its ultimate origins? From whence do they derive? Is a " belief" distinct from " knowledge"? Define a belief.
