Short Paper on Aristotle

  1. Describe your “essential self”—that is, the set of characteristics that defines what makes you a particular person. If you do not believe an essential self exists, explain why not.
  2. Explain why you think the essential self can or cannot change during a person’s lifetime.
  3. Since the essential self will (supposedly) actively resists anything that is not in our genuine best interest, how could self-sacrifice and martyrdom be regarded evidence of a person who lacked an essential self? Alternately, would voluntarily subjecting oneself to those things be a true indicator of an essential self? Explain your answers.

Please ensure that your essay addresses each component of the assigned questions and that your answer is well-organized, uses excellent, college-level prose, and makes judicious use of textual evidence. Your essay must follow APA formatting and should be 500-750 words long.
