    The fantasy world that Don Quixote rearranged his life around stemmed from the stories he read in his abundant collection of novels about chivalry and knight-errantry. Cervantes informs us that Don Quixote is the way he is because he spent so much of his time reading these novels that he neglected all other aspects of life.

    send me to public school until I graduate 8th grade. The reason I was asked to leave was because I was disruptive and immature.

    glad it’s a girl. And I hope she’ll be a fool-that’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool’” (17).

The last word, “fool,” refers to a person who acts without…

The dichotomy, as Durkheim puts it, between sacred/profane is not equivalent to good/evil. The sacred can either be good or evil; the profane could be either too.

    One of Hobbes’ central claims is that one should obey the laws of one’s state. His main argument surrounds the assertion that the presence of a sovereign is in the people’s best interest, so to go against the sovereign is to go against oneself. The fool objects to this, stating that it is sometimes rational for an agent to break their covenants and go against the sovereign, so long as it will benefit themselves. We will argue that Hobbes’ reply to the fool’s objection is insufficient and will…
