Research:
Choose a source from “Crazy Wisdom” or class discussion (Examples: Lao Tzu, Camus, Gandhi, Issa, Jane Wagner, etc) Pick someone that interests you!
Read at least one primary source from that person (For example, if you pick Camus, you can read a novel, short story or essay. If you pick John Cage, you can listen to his music and interviews and read some of his essays. If you pick Gary Snyder, you can read his poetry or essays. The point is that it’s source material that the philosopher created him or herself).
Read some background information on that person and their ideas.
Paper Writing:
1. Explain why you chose your source. Be specific! What resonated with you in particular? Do not just say “I liked it” or “I found it interesting.”
Explain the person’s ideas in the works you read, comparing and contrasting with other philosophers and ideas covered in class, including Plato’s Apollogy. (This may or may not include Right Action.) You must use at least 4 different class comparisons, but you can use more. The more you compare/contrast with class ideas the better. Show me you’ve been paying attention and learned something.
Describe how this person fits one (or more) of the Crazy Wisdom archetypes.
