HW12C due 3/10: Kierkegaard
March 9, 2015 By
1. Kierkegaard–Print and read this handout on Kierkegaard. Remember, the ultimate scholarly goal of this course is to be able to synthesize multiple philosophical principles from a number of sources. While The Stranger is Camus’ philosophical vehicle, having a base understanding of Kierkegaard gives greater depth to philosophical conclusions drawn from The Stranger. Don’t forget to annotate!
2. (DUE THURSDAY, 3/12) The Stranger–read and annotate the first two chapters! While annotating, pay attention to Meursault’s characterization and the tone/mood of the opening chapter of the novel.
*Again, I only have 19 copies of The Stranger so, if you can, please buy a copy. This is the version we will read in class.
