Lynn University McTaggart Theory of Unreality of Time Essay

Does Merleau-Ponty‘s phenomenological understanding of time provide a meaningful alternative to McTaggart’s A series and B series?

Your paper should have an introduction with a clear thesis that previews your argumentation. You should also take time in the paper to address possible counter arguments to your claim, but to show why these arguments are wrong (e.g.: some may say that X…but this is not correct because Y).

Papers should be 2500 to 3000 words (approximately 10 pages). Title page and reference page do not count for the word count. APA style. Include at least 3 peer-reviewed sources, in addition to the McTaggart and the Merleau-Ponty readings for class.

Evaluations of the paper will be based on:

• following assignment instructions
• your demonstrated understanding of Merleau-Ponty, McTaggart and any others you bring into the paper.
• dialogue paper requirements (see rubric below)

Papers should NOT:

• be purely expository (lack an argument)
• include any biographical information about your thinkers (this is a waste you your time and mine)
