Question

I have to do a project on a philosopher, do you know any really easy ones? 10 points for best answer.?

Answer 1

as a teacher I'm more impressed when a report is less than perfect but a challenge vs. lots of information but something I've read a million times...

Challenge yourself is it so hard?

Answer 2

None of them are "easy," but the ones that wil be most easy to report on are those that have tons of information on them, because your teacher can't fault you for not including everything that is important about the man. Pick one, like Socrates; then read several pieces about him and pick the parts that match. If they match, they must be important parts and they are probably accurate.

Answer 3

Socrates

Aristotle

Plato

Easiest and most famous...

Answer 4

Do something special and have fun with the existentialist Jean Paul Sartre! :-)

Essentially (he he... no pun intended) his philosophy is that existence precedes essence, or in other words that things exist before they have a definition or purpose.  And that it is up to us to define what that purpose is.  We are therefore free.

I've always liked him because he appeals to the rebellious kid in me who always challenges the preconceived notions that society has on how things should be.
