I need help with some philosophy work. Because of technical difficulties i am unable to keep up with some online work. Please answer each question as completely as possible, being sure to explain fully the concepts involved. Use examples and references to the text where appropriate, but please avoid quoting directly. Paraphrasing is the best way to go. Your answer to each question should be around 250 words long. I do not expect any of you to do outside research in giving your answers to the exam questions. You should be able to answer the questions from the text and lectures. If you use any outside material to help you, you must cite it -- even if you just paraphrase. Failure to do so constitutes plagiarism. 1.What does enlightenment mean, according to Kant, and how does it relate to freedom as Kant understands it? Does Kant place any limitations on freedom in order to foster an enlightened society? If so, explain those limitations. 2. List each of Peirce's methods for fixing belief. Explain how two of the methods secure belief and what are the limitations and strengths of each method. In giving your answer, please make reference to Peirce's general account of how belief and doubt are psychologically distinct. 3. Where does real knowledge come from according to Socrates? How do we get real knowledge and how does that relate to the life and death of a philosopher? 4. What is the goal of skepticism and how does the skeptic achieve it? Explain one of the modes the skeptic uses as part of her method. 5. Compare Sextus with one of the other philosophers we have read (Emanuel Kant, Plato and Charles Pierce). Sextus says the search for truth is not valuable. All the others do think the search for truth is valuable. Explain and compare the views about the value of truth of Sextus and one other philosopher.
