PHIL201: A very short reading

I would like you to find two-three passages that could be the focus of a seminar discussion and ask a question for each passage that can begin the seminar discussion. Also, you should provide a follow-up questions and passages that could either supplement the discussion or take it in a new direction if conversation lags. Moreover try to have a mix of textual questions (questions that have to do with the meaning of the text) and existential questions (questions that pertain to our own experiences). If the conversation strays too far from the text, textual questions are helpful. If the conversation becomes slow or boring, existential questions are helpful.

I will attach a copy of the required chapters once I assign a tutor, it is a really short reading assignment (11 pages). ISBN-10: 0385029551
