questions (ca 500 words per question):

3) How should I / we live?

Use Study Units 2 and 3 in Tutorial Letter 501 in order to answer these questions.
Please note that in answering these questions, you should not simply list the similarities
and differences in tabular form or present your points by means of bullets. We expect of
you coherent and elegant paragraphs in which you COMPARE the indicated philosophers
on each of the questions. Comparison entails that you take into account the context of
each philosopher, when you identify and discuss similarities and differences in their
answers to these questions.
You need, furthermore, use your own words and articulate your own thinking in answering
the questions. Simply copying and pasting from your sources constitutes plagiarism, and
will be awarded 0%. Please reread the paragraph above on plagiarism as a serious
academic offence.
