Book Hermeneutics   Ethics     Education

Download or read book Hermeneutics Ethics Education written by Andrzej Wiercinski and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2015 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book confronts the challenges that hermeneutics brings to ethics and education by thematizing the critical influence which ethics and contemporary educational theory and practice have on the self-understanding of philosophical hermeneutics. In the hermeneutic spirit of commitment to cultivating lifelong habits of critical thinking, moral reflection, and articulate expression, the book presents many voices that illuminate a rich cultural diversity with the profound hope of nurturing the full-flourishing of human beings. The hermeneutics of education calls for diverse ways of thinking about education, which deeply cares for the common good of individuals, communities, and nations. This diversity promotes a genuine interest in different approaches to the event (Ereignis) of education. (Series: International Studies in Hermeneutics and Phenomenology - Vol. 8) [Subject: Hermeneutics, Ethics, Education]

Book Hermeneutics of Education

Download or read book Hermeneutics of Education written by Andrzej Wiercinski and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hermeneutics of education pays special attention not to educational structures, but the central role of conversation in the educational process. The key issue is the formation of the person as a unique reality of being and acting while supporting intersubjective understanding. The polyphony of understanding places the human search for meaning within the horizon of incompleteness and allows for both, spontaneity and rigor, in order to reach an understanding of what is happening to us and in us when we understand. Reflection on education is always inseparable from educational practice.

Book The Meanings We Choose

    Book Details:
  • Author : Charles H. Cosgrove
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2004-09-01
  • ISBN : 056706896X
  • Pages : 238 pages

Download or read book The Meanings We Choose written by Charles H. Cosgrove and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2004-09-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Meanings We Choose is an engagement with responsible bible reading-Hebrew Bible/Old Testament and New Testament texts-for the past as well as for the present and future. Its stated perspectives are multi-denominational Christian but the implications of such readings go far beyond a specific confessional framework. In the present political climate the aware, responsible "personal" is meaningful for any community, confessedly religious as well as otherwise. While the articles collected in this volume, broadly speaking, can and perhaps should be compartmentalized as ideological criticism, their significance for reading ideologies "different" from their own is more than considerable.

Book Hermeneutics  Social Criticism and Everyday Education Practice

Download or read book Hermeneutics Social Criticism and Everyday Education Practice written by Wiktor Żłobicki and published by Uniwersytet Wrocławski. Instytut Pedagogiki. This book was released on 2020-06-03 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The individual chapters written by scholars of the Department of Ge­ne­ral Pedagogy at the University of Wrocław included in the volume offered to the Readers, showcase selected variants and problems of the hermeneutical and critical approaches to educational practice and research. The general pedagogy we practice in this way reveals its interdisciplinary character, drawing on the resources and achievements of philosophy, sociology, psychology, cultural anthropology, religious studies, and political sciences. By deliberately adopting such an approach, general pedagogy becomes the basic science of pedagogy; one of its major tasks is the integration and criticism of knowledge about education and the study of education and its broadly understood contexts, a knowledge which is produced not only in numerous disciplines of humanities and social sciences. This ambitious task undertaken by many theoreticians and researchers of education all over the world calls for a continuous effort to review the resources of dynamically changing and transforming scientific knowledge and to draw on contemporary and historically significant philosophy. Translating these experiences into the resources of general pedagogy requires from us the effort of understanding the languages of contemporary humanities, social sciences and multicultural societies, as well as the effort of critical thinking, which can recognize and take into account the entanglement of scientific knowledge in social ideas and practices, its conflicts, inequalities and asymmetric discourses. Hence the general pedagogy we practice, exploring the area of ideology (religion) and utopias present in everyday educational practice, implements the vision of bringing closer these two approaches (hermeneutical and critical). We believe that such a general pedagogy, engaged, practiced with passion, aware of its present social context and its past and of the urgent needs, theoretical and practical difficulties, a pedagogy that explores the possible shapes of the future, is both necessary and inspiring. It addresses new topics and offers novel approaches, revises well-established and newly proposed findings, is aware of opportunities and threats. Nevertheless, the chapters written by us are integral, self-contained wholes, just as their authors retain their intellectual and research autonomy, which can be seen in the issues we choose, the mode of their presentation and addressing.

Book Responsibility to Understand

Download or read book Responsibility to Understand written by George Theodore George and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few topics have received broader attention within contemporary philosophy than that of responsibility. Theodore George makes a novel case for a distinctive sense of responsibility at stake in the hermeneutical experiences of understanding and interpretation.He argues for the significance of this hermeneutical responsibility in the context of our relations with things, animals and others, as well as political solidarity and the formation of solidarities through the arts, literature and translation.

Book Hermeneutics at the Crossroads

Download or read book Hermeneutics at the Crossroads written by Kevin J. Vanhoozer and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2006-06-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this multi-faceted volume, Christian and other religiously committed theorists find themselves at an uneasy point in history -- between premodernity, modernity, and postmodernity -- where disciplines and methods, cultural and linguistic traditions, and religious commitments tangle and cross. Here, leading theorists explore the state of the art of the contemporary hermeneutical terrain. As they address the work of Gadamer, Ricoeur, and Derrida, the essays collected in this wide-ranging work engage key themes in philosophical hermeneutics, hermeneutics and religion, hermeneutics and the other arts, hermeneutics and literature, and hermeneutics and ethics. Readers will find lively exchanges and reflections that meet the intellectual and philosophical challenges posed by hermeneutics at the crossroads. Contributors are Bruce Ellis Benson, Christina Bieber Lake, John D. Caputo, Eduardo J. Echeverria, Benne Faber, Norman Lillegard, Roger Lundin, Brian McCrea, James K. A. Smith, Michael VanderWeele, Kevin Vanhoozer, and Nicholas Wolterstorff.

Book A Hermeneutics of Religious Education

Download or read book A Hermeneutics of Religious Education written by David Aldridge and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-22 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to understand a religion? How should the concept of truth be addressed in the contemporary classroom? What is the proper subject matter of religious education and how does it relate to other subjects and the school curriculum as a whole? Despite the prevalence of literature on these subjects, these issues are far from resolved and consequently the place and nature of religious education in our schools is precarious and confused. A Hermeneutics of Religious Education argues that although the tradition of philosophical hermeneutics has transformed both educational thought and the academic discipline of religious studies, the literature of religious education pedagogy has paid only limited attention to these developments. To engage with them fully entails a transformation of our understanding of religious education and its importance in a curriculum of the twenty-first century.

Book The Hermeneutical Self and an Ethical Difference

Download or read book The Hermeneutical Self and an Ethical Difference written by Paul S Chung and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Incorporating a tour of the past and a proposition for the future, Chung presents a fascinating study of inter civilizational hermeneutics that embraces our modern times and suggests the liberative potential of hermeneutical study. Adopting a subtleapproach that stays clear of trying to impose upon the reader a simplistic understanding of hermeneutical discourses, Chung instead draws on a host of classical and modern scholars in search of a new and refreshing global hermeneutical theory."

Book Curriculum and the Aesthetic Life

Download or read book Curriculum and the Aesthetic Life written by Donald Blumenfeld-Jones and published by Complicated Conversation. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Curriculum and the Aesthetic Life brings together over 20 years of scholarly work by dancer, educator, and scholar Donald S. Blumenfeld-Jones on the intersection of curriculum theory and practice with aesthetics, ethics, and hermeneutic inquiry, focusing on the body and emotions and the theory and practice of Arts-Based Education Research, including his noted «Hogan Dreams.» He brings to his work an aesthetic sensibility developed over 40 years of active involvement in the arts as well as a Frankfurt School critical theory orientation and a constant concern for building an ethical world through cultivating an aesthetic awareness. This linking of aesthetics and ethics makes a unique contribution to the theoretical foundations of curriculum theory and educational philosophy. Always concerned with connections to practice, this book provides many examples of curriculum practice and teaching as well as scholarly studies of curriculum work. This book is essential reading for anyone involved in the arts and education.

Book Gadamer s Hermeneutics and the Art of Conversation

Download or read book Gadamer s Hermeneutics and the Art of Conversation written by Andrzej Wierciński and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2011 with total page 653 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gadamer's Hermeneutics and the Art of Conversation covers the nature of dialogue and understanding in Hans-Georg Gadamer's lingually oriented hermeneutics and its relevance for contemporary philosophy. This timely collection of essays stresses the fundamental significance of the other for a further development of Heidegger's analytics of Dasein. By recognizing the priority of the other over oneself, Gadamerian hermeneutics founds a culture of dialogue sorely needed in our multi-cultural globalized community. The essays solicited for this volume are presented in three thematic blocks: "Hermeneutic Conversation," "Hermeneutics, Aesthetics, and Transcendence," "Hermeneutic Ethics, Education, and Politics." The volume proposes a dynamic understanding of hermeneutics as putting into practice the art of conversation.
