Descartes: Reconstruct the dream argument of Meditation 1 step by step. Whether you agree or disagree with the conclusion, provide the argument a good and strong interpretation. In other words, articulate the logic of Descartes’ argument as clearly as possible, explaining his premises or steps. Give reasons why someone (reasonable) might accept these premises. Articulate what you think the conclusion is, and why someone might agree that it is a logical consequence of the argument’s premises. Your paper should present your reader with different possible interpretations of the argument and its conclusion, and should indicate why you favor one particular interpretation over the other(s).
Remarks on these prompts

In these prompts, you are asked to critically assess the argument. That can be done in different ways. Here are some suggestions.
If you think the argument is faulty, raise an objection, explain why it presents a problem, and support it.
If you think the argument is correct, consider a convincing objection that someone could make, and explain why that objection does not hold.
If you think the argument is right but needs modification, explain how to modify it. Explain why and how the modification advances the argument.
