English Homework

Looking for someone todo my homework. I just don’t have time.

  

There’s two of them in the English subject. Both fairly easy and should be written at a grade 12 level. Doesn’t have to be 100% perfect.

 

Due as soon as possible. No later then Thursday night.

ru r PH I LOSOPH ER,5 *SYMPOsI UM,,

You are hereby summoned

t

o be a guest at a “symposium” for students of the great
philosophers (or scientists), hosted by none other than the renowned would-be philosopher
Glennicus Hallinias. Unlike the symposiums of old, this one will be somewhat more progressive
in that it will allow members of both genders to partake in the festivities. In addition, the laws
of the sacred Rdult Academy forbid hetairai and slaves from attending, so we will be forced to
serve ourselves-a difficult undertaking, I know, but a necessary one. And what will we be
serving? Wine, of course (sufficiently watered-down that the manufacturers have seen fit to
label it “gup”juice”). Perhaps there will even be a few food items and sweets to promote
richly phiiosophical discussion.

In preparation for this great event, you must research both the life and the philoso phy of an
ancient Greek philosopher (who, for the purposes of this activity, will be considered your
teacher). You must prepare abrief writtenbiography of your teacher to be read aloud to the
class. Also, you must prepare an equally brief description of one or more of the key
philosophical ideas that your teacher has brought forth to the ancient world. This, too, vrill be
read aloud to the assembled sfudents. Each student wi1i, therefore, in turn, introduce
themselves (using a pseudo-Greek name, of course) and introduce their fellow intellectuals to
the life and lessons of their great master and teacher.

You will be assigned, through random lot, a number. Philosophers will then be chosen in
order. Next, a short period of time, perhaps a class or two, will be given to research your
philosopher using a variely of resources from both the library and the Internet. In addition to
“presenting” yo* philosopher during the symposium, you wiil also be required to submit a
written version, including at least two bibliographical sources (with minimum of one print and
one online source). The written copy must be typed and must be no more than 300 words in
length (not inciuding the bibliography).
