Discuss in an essay (four pages long), being sure to present a thesis and (4-5 pages) to support it with materials from relevant assigned secondary source texts (Muller), primary texts, and lectures. Please note that for this essay, it's particularly important to draw substantively on the primary sources.
Exams are to be a total of 4-5 pages long, typed, double-spaced, using standard fonts and margins.
Statements based on materials from assigned texts (including but not limited to direct quotes) should be given the name of the text and page number, in parentheses, as citations: formal footnotes or endnotes are not necessary. Please do proof-read your answers carefully.
Your answers should be based on lectures and assigned readings; do not go to outside sources (that includes Wikipedia, other internet sources, encyclopedias, etc.) Finally, please remember that this is an examination and must therefore be entirely your own work.
