Two answers required. An essay by one of these thinkers pairs the other with Coleridge as the “seminal minds” of their age. A claim made by one of these thinkers is the subject of a “proof” by the other based on an analogy between being “visible” and “desirable,” which G. E.

These are the two thinkers most discussed as exemplars of a view contrasted with intuitionism and egoism in Henry Sidgwick’s The Methods of Ethics. These thinkers differed on whether there are higher and lower (10[1])pleasures in their versions of the (10[1])greatest happiness principle. For 10 points, Panopticon and On Liberty (10[1])are respectively (-5[1])by what two founders of utilitarianism? ■END■ (10[1]0[1])
