[SOLVED] Historical and Cultural Background
Reading The Odyssey and Tao Te Ching, by Lao Tzu, write an essay on What does it mean to live a good life? Think about a life well lived, life lessons, the purpose of life, etc. Analyze each and compare with regard to the meaning of living a good life. You must use three or four different sources. One type of source will be the primary texts, so that makes two. Use at least one more to help you make your argument. Provide some historical and cultural background for each of the reading assignments, so that might be a fifth source. You can use any of the secondary source provided below. Provide a clear controlling idea or argument, quotes from the texts that support your own lucid, interesting and relevant analyses.
