Investigate Noam Chomskys work as it relates to the major foundations of Philosophy. (Metaphysics, Epistemology, Ethics, Aesthetics, Politics)
Context will be required in your review of their work for their socio-economic and political time period. (ie: Racism and Sexism being represented in the work as a representation of the time or place in which they lived)
Format:
Your essay should cover the philosophers major ideas. When ever you are presenting context of their life, it should be directly related to their philosophical ideas. IE: Anti-Religious philosophy being caused by intensely strict and dogmatic religious childhood. The same idea should apply to schools they attend, jobs they had and familial relations. All points should relate back to their core philosophical beliefs. Stay away from biographical points that are irrelevant to your philosopher. IE: We dont need to know about who they married if they rarely wrote about marriage, parenting or gender relations.
