An interesting idea underdeveloped
A very interesting pairing for comparison, however I don't feel the comparison was done justice to. I don't feel that there was any penetrating analysis of the ultimate concepts of freedom posited by the respective authors, which I think would have yielded more interesting mutual ideas than merely the truism "they both talk about freedom", and focus remained only on the rhetorical differences. I also found it a little hard to read as the English was at some points stilted, but it was a fairly good effort, and its certainly food for thought. C+- 22/03/2007
