How to Write a Topic Essay Based on Philosophy
How to Write a Topic Essay Based on PhilosophyThere are hundreds of different kinds of topic related essays that can be used in a philosophy essay. Some are more traditional and some are completely atypical for the kind of philosophy that you are attempting to write. A word of warning though, if you are using a theme that is completely unique or original, the reason that your essay will be even more difficult and interesting is because it requires you to examine and analyze not only what the basic principles of philosophy are but also how the concept and application of these principles will directly affect your life.Although these topics are very interesting, they will not be nearly as effective if you have no idea how to write them. Your best bet is to research a variety of different topic essays before starting to research your own, and then you can pick the ones that best reflect your interests.The first example topic essay that I will focus on is one that will review the ancient Greek mythologies. Just as Aristotle put into words how myths would affect the way that we view reality, Plato found similar ways that our personal experiences can affect our myths can impact the way that we view our lives. The myth is an idea, an image, a symbol, or a feeling. In this particular essay, the myth will be one that we use to 'prove' our theory or to defend our character, and the essay will deal with this unique principle that Plato introduced into his philosophy.The myth is a way of life that has been adapted to a human society by mankind. One does not have to accept the myth of the island of Atlantis to believe that the myth is real or that it has any validity in your life. Instead, you have to actually meet people who are living through the myths. Even if the mythology of the island of Atlantis is true, people can just as easily believe that it is false as true.If you believe in the existence of a place where myth and reality intersect, you have to go there to meet p eople and learn more about their own lives. That is exactly what you need to do in order to decide whether or not the myth is true or not. In this case, you may need to consider living in a fantasy world or else come up with an alternate hypothesis that accounts for why so many people can accept the myth.It is really important to realize that you cannot just make up a myth just to justify something that you believe, such as a particular religious belief. Rather, you have to show that it is a well known fact or that the myth fits into the way that you interpret other events in your life. If you have special knowledge or skill, you can prove that you are making something up and invalidate the other person's myth.So, how would you go about writing an essay on the topic of philosophy? Start by reading all of the essays that you can find online, and then use the ones that you like the best to test out different themes and try to write a personal essay that will stand out from the rest.
