A Journey Through the History of Psychology Maddie Dean
One day I woke up and went downstairs to find my brother… using a sock’em bopper to separate Nick’s head from his body
My brother also found out that the boppers are glued to his hands. The “fists of knowledge” he calls them are built into him
Socrates Mind is separable from body and continuing after death Knowledge is built within us
Then I went outside to get some fresh air And found my dad measuring seed for the flowers so that they will grow
Aristotle Used data and numbers Knowledge is not pre-existing but grows from experience
My mom came outside to remind me of our August yoga classes
Augustine Body influences mind Mind influences body
On our way to yoga… My mom needed me to use “une carte” (map) because we got lost and I was born with a good sense of direction My mom killed a chipmunk when driving We were late to yoga so we just did it on the sidewalk
Descartes Innate ideas but body and mind connection strong Dissected animals
After yoga, we went to the Broadway Diner for some Bacon We ordered our bacon even though our waiter made no sense when she spoke Unfortunately the kitchen was “experimenting” with the bacon recipe and it was really bad
Bacon Experiments The mind tries to make order out of nonsense
When we got home… We were locked outside our house and both mom and I tried equally to open it but it didn’t work There was a blank slate hanging outside our front door
Locke We all start with a blank slate We are all created equal at birth
