Respond to four (4) of the following topics with thoughtful, well-supported, well-written paragraphs of 150 – 200 words each. Be sure to use quotations to support your ideas. While Hamlet's "mad" behavior starts out as an "antic disposition," his mental state deteriorates over the course of the play to a point where it would be accurate to call him truly mad. It's no accident that the play makes it impossible to know whether or not Hamlet is actually "mad" – the audience's uncertainty about Hamlet's mental state mirrors the general ambiguity and doubt that characterizes the entire play. The fact that Hamlet is still talking about suicide even after he has sworn to avenge his father shows that the Prince's problems lie much deeper than simple grief over his father's murder. Hamlet himself defines theater as an art designed to "hold, as 'twere, the mirror up to Nature" (3.2.1). But in Hamlet, Shakespeare presents theater as something that shapes reality, rather than merely reflecting it. Hamlet is miserable in Denmark not just because of his father's death, but because he craves honesty while everyone else around him is engaged in deception and manipulation. There is justice in Hamlet because every character that practices deception is ultimately punished for doing so, often by his own form of treachery. The play does not share Hamlet's sexist attitude. In fact, it paints a sympathetic picture of Ophelia and seems to suggest that her madness and tragic death are the result of unfair attitudes toward women. In Hamlet, parents cannot be trusted to care for their children, especially when matters of politics are involved.

Elements of a contact due 16 Oct

Read the Case Campbell Soup Co. v. Wentz in the text. Answer the following questions:

1.    What were the terms of the contract between Campbell and the Wentzes?
2.    Did the Wentzes perform under the contract?
3.    Did the court find specific performance to be an adequate legal remedy in this case?
4.    Why did the court refuse to help Campbell in enforcing its legal contract?
5.    How could Campbell change its contract in the future so as to avoid the unconsionability problem?

Facts: Per a written contract between Campbell Soup Company (a New Jersey company) and the Wentzes (carrot farmers in Pennsylvania), the Wentzes would deliver to Campbell all the Chantenay red cored carrots to be grown on the Wentz farm during the 1947 season. The contract price for the carrots was $30 per ton. The contract between Campbell Soup and all sellers of carrots was drafted by Campbell and it had a provision that prohibited farmers/sellers from selling their carrots to anyone else, except those carrots that were rejected by Campbell. The contract also had a liquidated damages provision of $50 per ton if the seller breached, but it had no similar provision in the event Campbell breached. The contract not only allowed Campbell to reject nonconforming carrots, but gave Campbell the right to determine who could buy the carrots it had rejected. The Wentzes harvested 100 tons of carrots, but because the market price at the time of harvesting was $90 per ton for these rare carrots, the Wentzes refused to deliver them to Campbell and sold 62 tons of their carrots to a farmer who sold some of those carrots to Campbell. Campbell sued the Wentzes, asking for the court’s order to stop further sale of the contracted carrots to others and to compel specific performance of the contract. The trial court ruled for the Wentzes and Campbell appealed.

Issues: Is specific performance an appropriate legal remedy in this case or is the contract unconscionable?

Discussion: In January 1948, it was virtually impossible to obtain Chantenay carrots in the open market. Campbell used Chantenay carrots (which are easier to process for soup making than other carrots) in large quantities and furnishes the seeds to farmers with whom it contracts. Campbell contracted for carrots long ahead, and farmers entered into the contract willingly. If the facts of this case were this simple, specific performance should have been granted.

However, the problem is with the contract itself, which was one-sided. According to the appellate court, the most direct example of unconscionability was the provision that, under certain circumstances, Campbell may reject carrots, but farmers cannot sell them anywhere without Campbell’s permission. Though the contract was legal, it was wrong for Campbell to ask for the court’s help in enforcing this unconscionable bargain (one that “shocks the conscience of the court”). The court said that the sum of the contract’s provisions “drives too hard a bargain for a court of conscience to assist.”

Holding: The judgment of the trial court in favor of the farmers is affirmed.

ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY: Find six Internet resources that you believe are particularly fascinating, and write a three or four sentence annotation for each resource.

On one of the topics below. 

&

REFLECTIVE JOURNAL: Also referred to as JOURNAL. Write a three-page (approximately 750 words) reflective journal for this unit that demonstrates that you have contemplated and understand the material, and that you comprehend how it relates to science and Science as a Process. You may make use of the guiding questions listed under Think About It! for this assignment.

The assignment requires three full pages of writing, double-spaced with starndard margins and miminal headings. Choose on of the unit objectives or guiding questions (“Think About It” questions) and write the entire three pages on this single topic, and its relationship to the principles and practices of scientific inquiry. 

You must use two outside sourcrs of infomration, and these sources must be acknowledged with in-text citations and listed in a Literature Cited Section at the end of the Reflective Journal eassay. You may also use your textbook (Goldstein and Goldstein, 1989) as a source, if appropriate. 

The in-text citations should be of the format (author’s last names, years of publication) enclosed within parentheses and within the sentence that includes the information. Two examples follow: 

Goldstein and Goldstein (1980) indicated that there is no prescribed process for experimentally testing a hypothesis.

Although it is commonly understood that theories cannot be proven correct; they also cannot be proven wrong (Goldstein & Goldstein, 1980).

 

  1. Gould (1997) argued that religion and science are not in conflict.  Explain the details and basis for his belief, and discuss some of the published criticisms of his conclusions, as well as presenting your critique of his essay.
  2. Not all experiments are designed to test important theories about nature or to seek greater details about current paradigms.  Some are more prosaic.  Let’s assume for the purposes of this item, that you are scientist working for either a governmental agency or a consumer group.  A new product call Mileage Extender or ME comes across your desk.  Design and describe an experiment you might conduct to test the effect of this potential fuel additive on automobile-efficiency as measured in miles per gallon (mpg).  ME is a liquid chemical that is intended to be added to the gas tank each time the tank is filled with gasoline.  Cover issues such as, (1) sample size, (2) means of ensuring that the only variable that can affect mpg is the presence or absence of ME in the gasoline , (3) how data will be gathered and recorded, (4) how bias can be avoided by those assistants that are collecting the data, and (5) any other essential details.  
  3. Why should more general theories of nature be so highly sought and prized?  Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of generalized theories and more specific theories.  
  4. Hypotheses may be considered “reasonable candidates” for possible answers to a question and/or possible explanations of how a process works.  Scientists may begin a study with multiple working hypotheses—for instance from item 2 above, Hypothesis 1: ME improves engine performance, Hypotheses 2: ME has no effect on engine performance, or Hypothesis 3: ME decreases engine performance.  More complicated questions and processes may have numerous potential hypotheses, some of which are not immediately obvious.  Discuss why we (scientists and laymen alike) may have great faith in a hypothesis or theory that cannot be proven true or false?
  5. Science is an open endeavor, and anyone with the time and inclination may conduct observations and experiments, contribute to the formulation of hypotheses and theories, and/or solve scientificproblems.  As examples, (1) a young man interested in seeing the world joined a scientific expedition and took a voyage on the H.M.S. Beagle, (2) a monk in Czechoslovakia tested his hypothesis that inheritance was particulate and not equivalent to a blending of fluids, (3) a very young Polish student in Paris discovered and characterized radium and realized its medical potential, (4) a meteorologist gathered evidence that all the continents had at one time been united to form a single, super-continent, (5) a clerk in the Swiss patent office wrote papers on the photoelectric effect, Brownian motion, special relativity, and E = mc2, (6) a young PhD geneticist began her study of maize and its genetics—she made contributions to understanding the structure and evolution of corn genes and chromosomes.  Select one (1) of these workers (at least three of them were awarded Nobel Prizes, and one received two) and discuss how she or he contributed to modern theories in biology and/or physics.  Did their role as “outsiders” affect their status as scientists or to the acceptance of their ideas?  Were their ideas accepted quickly, slowly, ignored, or even disparaged?  Did they ever find positions at prestigious universities or did they die unknown to the general scientific community?
