Summarize and analyze the article by Steven Vogel, Environmental Philosophy after the End of Nature.
Address the following:
– What key argument do you think the author makes?
– Identify one or two key examples or data points the author uses to develop the broader argument?
– After thinking about what you read, what questions if any do you walk away with? Do you find the authors
argument compelling or do you find something missing? (there is no right or wrong answer to this final question).
Provide full article reference as title for your discussion at the top of the essay.
Clearly organize into three sections.
Length: 400 – 600 words.
Follow these general guidelines:
– Put your name at the top of the page.
– Note word count in the upper right corner of the page.
– Stick to the word count. If you end up above it, edit it down: delete, rephrase, condense, consolidate.
– Put the full bibliographical reference at the top of each summary.
Style:
– Clearly organize your argument, avoid repetition.
– Avoid statements like “I agree with the author” without explaining why.
Grading: You will be graded
– on your ability to succinctly identify the broader argument,
– on your ability to tie your concluding thoughts into some of the previous discussion (if it applies to the
assignment),
– on organization, clarity of writing, and grammar (Have someone read through your work particularly if you are
not a native speaker!)
