“Students will write a 7-8 page (2,100-2,400 words) analytical essay on an assigned topic. The essay should be double-
spaced in Times New Roman 12-point font with 1” margins. The essay should consistently use a citation format (such as
APA or Chicago). In addition to using the authors that we have read in the course as primary sources, students must
consult and cite appropriately at least 3 scholarly sources in the paper. A scholarly source could be a professional
journal article in a philosophy journal or a book or book chapter in a scholarly monograph published by an academic
press (for example, Oxford, Cambridge, Chicago, Harvard, Princeton, and others). Provide a total word count at the end of the paper.”
Dualism versus Monism in Descartes and Hobbes: Hobbes saw the simplicity and unity of his understanding of human psychology as decisive. He asserted that phenomena such as perception, imagination, and memory could all be understood as matter in motion. In claiming this, he developed an account of the mind without positing the existence of non-corporeal entities, such as the soul. In your paper, sketch Hobbes’s account of human psychology in Leviathan and argue for the view’s strengths or weaknesses. Then compare Hobbes’s monism with Descartes’ dualism, assessing which is able to explain a wider range of phenomena.
