Ideal Society – Required for Position Paper
One of the following five essays should be used (even briefly) as a reference in your paper. These
selections are: Utopia by Thomas More, The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli, the Declaration of Independence
drafted by Thomas Jefferson, the Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and I
Have a Dream by Martin Luther King, Jr. There are many topics discussed in these essays that are still
relevant in today’s world. For example, The Declaration of Independence and its reference to the government
and its people ensuring the ‘safety and happiness’ of all citizens, can easily be applied to protecting children
and their use of smartphones (i.e. protection from Big Tech). You can use a direct quote or a paraphrase your
ideal society reference. Each of these selections can be found online as pdfs in the position paper
module of our course. Topics such as health care, marriage, religion, education, the economy, individual civil
rights, and the legal system lean on many of these ideologies to support their views of a better society. Select
one of the readings on which you would like to focus and the questions that follow the reading (see below)
will give you a general idea of whether or not that essay is relevant to your issue.
Utopia – Thomas More
*More indicates that in the England of his day many people loafed or engaged in unnecessary
work putting an enormous burden on those who engaged in useful work. Is this condition or any part
of it true of our society?
The Prince – Niccolo Machiavelli
*In the opening paragraph, Machiavelli claims that a ruler who wishes to keep power must “learn
how not to be good” that is, must know where and when to ignore the demands of conventional
morality. Can you think of any recent political event in which a political leader violated the
requirements of morality, as Machiavelli advises?
*Can you think of recent events supporting or disproving the view that cruelty can be beneficial to
society?
*Machiavelli declares that “one must consider the final result.” Do you think that he means any end,
goal, or purpose of anyone justifies using any means to reach it? Give an example of this from today’s
society / government?
The Declaration of Independence – Thomas Jefferson
*The Declaration cites “certain unalienable rights” and mentions three: “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit
of Happiness.” What is an unalienable right? What duties, if any, go with these rights?
*Consider why a certain group is entitled to independence. You may want to argue that
adolescents should not be compelled to attend school, that animals should not be confined to zoos, or
that persons who use drugs should be able to buy them legally.
Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions – Elizabeth Cady Stanton
*Stanton’s declaration is over a century old. Have all of the issues she raised been satisfactorily
resolved? If not, which ones remain?
*In our society, children have very few rights. For instance, a child cannot decide to drop out of
elementary or high school, and a child cannot decide to leave his or her parents and reside with some
other family that he or she finds more compatible.
I Have a Dream – Martin Luther King, Jr.
*King says that his dream is deeply rooted in the American Dream. What is the American dream?
Was the dream in 1963 the same dream we have today?
*King delivered his speech more than 60 years ago. Is the speech still relevant? Is there equality in
America?

Persuasive essay on keeping state Board licensing. It needs to have 3 ACADEMIC  journal sitations out of the 4. The essay needs a problem cause and solution.  

write a 700 word essay with a context of Understanding who we are and how we may be perceived by others are major elements in our growth into adulthood.  One of the major themes of Twelfth Night is that of deception. This is exemplified in Viola’s choice to pretend to be a man called Cesario. This deception serves as a main driving force in the play’s plot and impacts the audience’s understanding of the other themes in the play such as identity, love and class/society.
The deceptions throughout the play also cause the audience to consider deep ethical dilemmas, such as whether or not deception is justifiable in the pursuit of love or personal desires. Was it wrong for Viola to deceive Olivia and Orsino? Even if the story ends happily, did she do the right thing? These kinds of questions were not only asked in Elizabethan England but are still relevant today and a task of What does Shakespeare try to teach audiences about the consequences of deception in Twelfth Night?
You will:
Read the play and identify the places where deception is present. 
Use the structure of an essay, including:
Introduction
Your introduction should give some general information about the play and contain a clear thesis statement.
A thesis statement is the key point you would like to prove in your essay. 
Follow this link for advice on how to write a thesis statement.Links to an external site.
Your thesis should answer the question, ‘What does Shakespeare try to teach audiences about the consequences of deception in Twelfth Night?’
Body Paragraphs
When planning your body paragraphs, consider what characters, events and quotes from the play provide the best insights into the theme of deception. 
What circumstances and events lead characters to deceive others? 
Do the events of the play lead the audience to have a positive or negative view on deception?
How does the plot/structure of the play emphasise the theme of deception? 
Consider the 5 Act Structure of the play and the choices of Shakespeare as to when events happen. 
Think, the audience knows more than the characters about what is going on. How does this impact the way you think about the deceptions in the play? The technical term for this is dramatic irony.
How does the use of language (such as the literary device you have identified) affect the audience’s understanding of what is being said and how characters’ deceptions impact others?
You must use a quote from at least one from the excerpts of the play (below) in your essay. When discussing that quote, you will need to:
Introduce the quote. 
E.g. In Act 2: Scene 3, Viola says, “_______”
Identify a literary device Links to an external site.that is present in the quote. 
Explain the effect that this has on the audience.
A Conclusion
This paragraph should draw all of the evidence provided back to your key point (your thesis / the key lesson about the consequences of deception). 

This week, write a 1,000-1,200 word argumentative/rhetorical analysis essay on your chosen classic argument. The essay must be in correct MLA format. Visit Purdue’s Online Writing Lab (OWL) for guidelines.
Refresh your memory on our definition of an Authentic Servant Leader. Keep in mind some of the strategies we covered on rhetorical analysis. Our main questions to consider are: Who is the intended audience of the essay? Is the essay effective? Is this essay credible? What is the article missing? How credible is the author? To better answer these questions, be sure to find the following answers.
Who is the author, and why is this important? 
· When was the essay written, and why is this important? 
· What claim is the author making? 
· What kind of claim is the author making (fact, value, or policy)? How does the author support this claim? 
· What is the warrant that connects the claim and the support? 
· How does the author portray aspects of leadership in the story? Do you see evidence of an authentic servant leader? 
Why or why not?
PLEASE NOTE: The above questions are the items you need to address throughout the body of your essay. You should create a thesis statement (the last sentence of the introductory paragraph) that clearly articulates the argument you are presenting related to the overall credibility and reliability of the classic argument you have chosen to evaluate. You will then support that thesis statement (throughout the body of your essay) by addressing the above questions in proper paragraph format. Please do not write your essay in a question/answer format. The questions that are listed above should guide you through the development of the body of your paper.

Explore how culture and identity shape the American ideas of law, order, and justice in The Watchmen. Why does this comic distort American history and politics? How does this effect the role of the superhero or vigilante in their version of the United States, and what commentary might this be on who or what should determine the greater good in society?
