Paper prompt: Please consider Thich Nhat Hahn’s distinction between historical and ultimate dimensions to reflect on the other readings from the first half of the semester.
*use 7 sources minimum, and that includes the main source + I think he said the art of living can count for 2 since it’s a whole book
Thich Nhat Hahn: Art of Living (main book)
I will attach the class readings to choose from for the other 5-6 sources of choice that support the ARGUMENT
Paper instructions: The papers are 8 pages type written, double spaced. Please use the material from the class to develop your thesis. Back up your thesis with arguments and examples from the class readings. Please include a title, internal citations with page numbers, and a reference list at the end. Also, please cite at least 7 class readings for each paper. A good paper demonstrates that you have integrated the material from the class discussions and readings and can use it to analyze your topic. Use the bulk of your energy reading closely and thinking seriously about the materials you have (rather than doing outside research). Please see Essential Writing Skills, by Gill (NYU classes), for a review of basics for the academic essay which will guide my reading of your work. The grading scale for the class will be as follows: 93-100% (A) 90-92 (A-), 87-89 (B+), 83-86 (B), 80-82 (B-), 77-79 (C+), 70-76 (C), 63-69 (D), and below (F)
