Atomists and Pluralists

Overview

After you’ve viewed the brief videos and done the reading, please write a brief paper (roughly 600-750 words, based only on these materials and NOT relying on any web or other sources, answering the following question:

Can you sum up what the goals and findings of the Atomists and/or the Pluralists were? You may write about both, of course, but because these are such brief papers, I recommend that you choose one.

In other words: basically, assuming you were, in turn, teaching these topics to someone else, what would you tell them about this group of Pre-Socratic thinkers? What questions motivated them? What were their theories or conclusions? And what relevance does their philosophy/science have to our world today?

As before, please keep quotes minimal. You only need to cite direct quotes. Please use Chicago or APA style formatting for any citations.
