USC Rediscovering George Herbert’s ‘Virtue Discussion

/0 Comments/in /by

Question

George Herbert re-reading assignment 2. Re-read your chosen George Herbert poem from last week and post a short (200ish words) reflection, considering how re-reading the poem this week compared to your initial experience of reading the poem last week, and explaining what new things you noticed about the poem this time.

This is what I said last time and what you should start from to do further considerations and complete the assignment:

VIRTUE

In George Herbert’s “Virtue,” the speaker wonders about beauty and how life is momentary. A tranquil Question of a “sweet day, so cool, bright and calm” portrays the few times it is filled with joy and perfection. Almost all the words repeated in every line, like dawn, out rose, and spring, denote accepting death as a reality. The poem’s structure of short stanzas with brief lines demonstrates how transient life’s joys are. These visual and auditory elements are put together very well such that individual can visualize an intense hue on the rose’s face, “hue, angry and brave”; as for sounds, it is found in the last three lines (Herbert). At the end of this poem, Herbert assigns virtue as an ever-stable force in an unstable world, suggesting that only souls through a righteous character are like old wood used over time. This poem is similar to self-reflection concerning temporary life but still powerfully talking about virtue, which forever remains.

QUESTION

Return to the topic you chose in the week three assignment. Articulate a specific dilemma in a situation faced by a particular person based on that topic. The situation can be real or fictional.

Summarize the dilemma.

Define any needed key terms associated with the dilemma.

  • Analyze the conflicts or controversies involved in the dilemma.
  • Revise and rewrite based on any feedback you received in your previous draft (week three). Reference and discuss any professional code of ethics relevant to your topic such as the AMA code for doctors, the ANA code for nurses, etc.  State whether and how your chosen topic involves any conflicts between professional and familial duties or conflicts between loyalty to self and loyalty to a community or nation.
  • What in your view is the most moral thing for that person to do in that dilemma? Why is that the most moral thing? Use moral values and logical reasoning to justify your answer

Next, apply the following:

Aristotle’s Golden Mean to the dilemma

Utilitarianism to the dilemma

Natural Law ethics to the dilemma

  • Which of those three theories works best ethically speaking? Why that one?
  • Why do the other two not work or not work as well?
  • Is it the same as what you said is the most moral thing earlier? Why or why not?

Use the 5 articles from your annotated bibliography to support your answers. (Additional academic scholarly research from the past 5 years can be included as well.) 

Disucssion for week 4

QUESTION

A walk through the Business section of any bookstore or a quick Internet search on the topic will reveal a seemingly endless supply of writings on leadership. Formal research literature is also teeming with volumes on the subject.

However, your own observation and experiences may suggest these theories are not always so easily found in practice. Not that the potential isn’t there; current evidence suggests that leadership factors such as emotional intelligence and transformational leadership behaviors, for example, can be highly effective for leading nurses and organizations.

Yet, how well are these theories put to practice? In this Discussion, you will examine formal leadership theories. You will compare these theories to behaviors you have observed firsthand and discuss their effectiveness in impacting your organization.

To Prepare:

Review the Resources and examine the leadership theories and behaviors introduced.

Identify two to three scholarly resources, in addition to this Module’s readings, that evaluate the impact of leadership behaviors in creating healthy work environments.

Reflect on the leadership behaviors presented in the three resources that you selected for review.

  • Post two key insights you had from the scholarly resources you selected. Describe a leader whom you have seen use such behaviors and skills, or a situation where you have seen these behaviors and skills used in practice. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain to what extent these skills were effective and how their practice impacted the workplace.

A short summary of what you read. No need to be too extensive, but consider both what the piece was about, what examples the author used, and what angle they approached their topic from. What methodology did they use? What sources did they pull from? Elaborate on what you thought was most important and what the overall concepts were this week.

What was/is your initial response to the chapters? Did you agree with the author’s argument? Did you understand what they meant immediately or did you have to read some things back a few times? If you agree with their assessment, why? If you didn’t, why?

What did you find interesting or learn while reading? Did they mention anything you have personal experience in or with? What resonated with you? What (if anything) was entirely new to you and how has it changed how you have thought about art before now?

What further questions has the reading sparked? Not just clarifying questions about the content of the reading, but what has it made you think about? Or consider from a different angle? If you were to ask questions that would expand upon their research, what would they be

QUESTION

After watching this week’s support video posted below, and this week’s lecture, please thoroughly answer the following questions:

  • Which identity quadrant are you currently in as it relates to your major/career, and what evidence do you have to support that? Be honest here and talk about your transitions from one quadrant to another as you have progressed through them. For example, I have been in three quadrants throughout my adult life, and I can explain each phase in detail. You should be able to be the same with which quadrant you are in and any you have previously been in.
  • Choose one or two people you love that are older than you, and discuss what you have witnessed throughout their lifetime as it relates to their jobs/careers and which quadrants they are and have been in. What are some challenges you see for them as it relates to life pressures and these quadrants? How will this information impact how you view college and career choices through the lens of Marcia’s quadrants?
  • Lastly, what else can you tie in from lecture around this topic? Specifically, how might this transition period impact the developmental stages that will come later in life? (hint: you may want to look at Erikson’s stages beyond this period to foreshadow what might come later for individuals if Marcia’s insights are not heeded).
