Life is Beautiful
This has been a busy week.
In preparation for your first major assignment we watched Life is Beautiful. Roberto Benigni directed and co-wrote this film in part from his own personal history of his father being imprisoned in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp during WWII. Benigni won the Oscar for Best Actor, Best Foreign Language Film and Best Dramatic Film Score and his acceptance speeches show him just as he played Guido in the film.
This film has many elements of questions of:
Personhood
Self
Meaning in Life
Supreme Being in it and that's why it is the perfect match for Metaphysics.
Please review your notes and the blog entries on these four main Metaphysics topics.
Here is some useful information about the film:
Quotes from Life is Beautiful
Questions that arose in Life is Beautiful
Today I distributed your project to bring together all of the ideas in Metaphysics in the Answering Life's Fundamental Questions project that is due next Thursday.
And here's the ALFQ Marking Scheme too.
Enjoy! As you know I'm flexible with due dates but I really hope you can get this in by next Thursday so that you can relax over March Break.
