As is usual for this blog at this point, I am uploading the midterms I wrote this semester. I am a philosophy bachelor student at Leiden University.

In this essay, I compare various stories on the afterlife and analyse them under Avicennan metaphysics. I was criticised for not using enough primary sources. This essay scored 80/100.
