Assignment 1: Essay
Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph essay (250 words minimum) which analyzes
the “surprise ending” of the reading selection. 

  • Reading selection from Descartes’ Discourse on the
    Method (Part IV). Descartes begins with a  proof of one basic
    conclusion and ends with a proof of something much grander. Remember to
    focus on the surprise and point of realization, not the details of the philosophical
    argument. Read Part IV of the Discourse on the Method located at http://www.earlymoderntexts.com/assets/pdfs/descartes1637.pdf (then scroll down to Part 4, pp. 14-18). This is only
    four or five (4 or 5) pages of the larger work. 

For the reading selection you
choose:

  1. Clearly state in your own words the “surprise ending”
    in the reading you selected. Clearly identify the point in the reading
    when you realized that there were elements in the reading that surprised
    you. Not all of the surprises come at the end.
  2. Evaluate how successful the author was in convincing
    you to accept the validity of the “surprise ending” that was different
    from what you expected. 

Your assignment must follow these
formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font
    (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references
    must follow APA Style format. Check with your professor for any additional
    instructions. (Note: Students can find APA style materials located in the
    Additional Resources section of their Student Center within their course
    shell for reference)
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the
    assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title,
    and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in
    the required assignment page length.
  • Use the source(s) identified above for the topic you
    choose, focusing on the main primary source of that author. You may use
    additional sources also if they are of good academic quality for college
    papers (Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify). Use proper APA
    style in-text citing and also a matching APA style References list at the
    end.  

The specific course learning
outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Explain how key social, cultural, and artistic
    contributions contribute to historical changes.
  • Explain the importance of situating a society’s
    cultural and artistic expressions within a historical context. 
  • Examine the influences of intellectual, religious,
    political, and socio-economic forces on social, cultural, and artistic
