Descartes’s Arguments
First, 500-word draft.
For this paper, choose one aspect of Descartes’s arguments (for example, distrust of the senses, proofs for the existence of God, the meditative element of his approach, hyperbolic doubt etc.) analyze its significance within Descartes’s overall project, and assess its strength against an objection from from Charles Mills.
Your analysis should result in a determinate argument, a clear exposition of the significance of your chosen aspect within Descartes’s overall project, and an evaluation of the success and or significance of Descartes’s project in light of a clearly explain objection from either Mills or Elizabeth.
Your paper should argue either for the success of Descartes’s arguments against the objections, or the success of the objections over Descartes’s argument, through careful analysis of the text and through philosophical arguments. Your paper should be ~5 pages(1250-1500 words)
