Essay titles

The essay assignment (with one sentence highlighted in bold)

Use material from the Analects of Confucius and from Judging Religions Justly, show how a Confucian would judge the essential ideals of the other three main Eastern religions (Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism).

This is a formal essay, not a reaction paper or a creative writing paper. Write about the four religions and the topic in the third person (he, she, it, they); do not write about yourself or about the process of writing the essay. Be sure to give your essay a title that calls attention to the central theme of the paper--your own personal judgment on what the readings say about these four religions.

The essay is about the religions, not about you--but the essay will express your understanding and judgment of the readings.

Use many quotations & paraphrases from both sources. Provide page references both for quotations and for paraphrases. This is how you demonstrate that you have done the required reading.

A Confucian Perspective on Middle Eastern religions

The "Middle East" is that part of the East which is close to the West (Europe). The "Middle Eastern" religions are in fact the three Western religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The "Eastern religions" in the assignment, as shown above, are Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Those are "Far Eastern" from the standpoint of the West.
