Book Paulo Freire s Intellectual Roots

Download or read book Paulo Freire s Intellectual Roots written by Robert Lake and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-04-11 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paulo Freire's critical pedagogy has had a profound influence on contemporary progressive educators around the globe as they endeavor to rethink education for liberation and the creation of more humane global society. For Freire, maintaining a sense of historicity, that is, the origins from which our thinking and practice emerges, is essential to understanding and practicing education as a means for liberation. Too often, however, critical pedagogy is presented as a monolithic philosophy, and the historical and intellectual roots of critical pedagogy are submerged. Through a compilation of essays written by leading and emerging scholars of critical pedagogy, this text brings history into the present and keeps Paulo's intellectual roots alive in all of us as we develop our praxis today.

Download or read book Freire s Key Terms written by Teresa García Gómez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-05 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together clear and concise definitions of 33 key terms used by the great educational thinker, Paulo Freire. From 'critical consciousness' to 'concientization' and from 'oppressed' to the 'banking model of education' Freire's concepts and ways of understanding education are as relevant today as they ever were. The critical definitions attend to the theoretical and practical implications of each term allowing readers to appreciate the philosophical and emancipatory nature of Freire's work and learn how these ideas can be applied in educational, social, and political setting to drive social change. Each term is explained in relation to Freire's wider body of work, noting the nuances and meanings that developed through his career as pedagogue. The book shows the significance of Freire's legacy, and offers an opportunity to put into practice, rethink, and remake his proposal for a radical model of education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedagogy of the Heart represents some of the last writings by Paulo Freire. In this work, perhaps more so than any other, Freire presents a coherent set of principles for education and politics. For those who have read Freire's other works the book includes new discussions of familiar subjects including community, neoliberalism, faith, hope, the oppressed, and exile. For those coming to Freire for the first time, the book will open up new ways of looking at the interrelations of education and political struggle. Freire reveals himself as a radical reformer whose lifelong commitment to the vulnerable, the illiterate and the marginalised has had a profound impact on society and education today. The text includes substantive notes by Ana Maria Araújo Freire, a foreword by Martin Carnoy, a preface by Ladislau Dowbor, as well as a substantive new introduction by Antonia Darder, who holds the Leavey Presidential Endowed Chair in Ethics and Moral Leadership in the School of Education at Loyola Marymount University, USA. Translated by Donaldo Macedo and Alexandre Oliveira.

  • Author : Carlos Alberto Torres
  • Publisher : Teachers College Press
  • Release : 2014-06-08
  • ISBN : 0807772895
  • Pages : 206 pages

Download or read book First Freire written by Carlos Alberto Torres and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2014-06-08 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his new book, Carlos Alberto Torres, an internationally renowned critical theorist of education, explores the early writings of Paulo Freire whose ideas have had a tremendous and long-lasting impact on the world of pedagogy and politics. Torres analyzes Freire’s works, from the 1960s and 1970s, before Freire gained worldwide recognition for his Pedagogy of the Oppressed. Offering an in-depth look into the formative thinking of Freire, Torres identifies how his ideas produced frameworks for educating global citizens, building community and mutual respect, creating social responsibility, instilling an appreciation for diversity, promoting multiple literacies, and social justice education. This volume is the result of more than 3 decades of research with access to Freire’s personal library and the archives of the Paulo Freire Institute, as well as the author’s extensive conversations with Paulo Freire over two decades—Dr. Torres was Freire’s adviser during his tenure as Secretary of Education in the Municipality of São Paulo, Brazil, 1989–1991. “First Freire is a fascinating discourse on the meaning and power of Freire's contribution by a noted colleague and scholar.” —Henry M. Levin, William Heard Kilpatrick Professor of Economics and Education, Teachers College, Columbia University “Paulo Freire was one of the great educational and political philosophers of the 20th century. In First Freire, Torres—a foremost Freire scholar—has provided us with a wonderful and insightful analysis of the many facets of Freire's writings. Particularly important is Torres’ ability to situate Freire's work in the political context that framed and defined his writings. Hopefully, First Freire will inspire a new generation of educators to move beyond the current neo-liberal discussions about student test scores and ‘what works’ to understand the political meaning of education.” —Martin Carnoy, Vida Jacks Professor of Education, Stanford University “Professor Torres successfully combines, in unconventional ways, his personal reminiscences of Freire with essays that illuminate Freire’s political philosophy and thoughts on the anthropology of education, demonstrating specific approaches one can use to engage in the method of thematic investigation proposed by Freire. A considerable merit of this book is how it persuasively shows the timely relevance of the critical observations of this great Latin American thinker to contemporary society, as we struggle to go beyond economic and technological globalization to rebuild our changed but still community-oriented selves.” —Nelly P. Stromquist, professor, University of Maryland

Book Rethinking Freire and Illich

Download or read book Rethinking Freire and Illich written by Rosa Bruno-Jofré and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2023-10-02 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marking the fiftieth anniversary of two of the most influential books in modern educational and social theory, Rethinking Freire and Illich introduces readers to the results of the symposium of Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed and Ivan Illich’s Deschooling Society. The collection uniquely analyses Freire and Illich together, although not in a comparative way. It acknowledges that both Freire and Illich led in different ways to a new approach to perceiving and understanding the concept of liberation as a human condition, while also presenting current criticisms of their work from a gendered perspective and by Indigenous scholars in the US and Canada. Drawing on contributions from historians of education, theologians, digital experts, and philosophers of education, the book offers a historical analysis using extensive primary sources and an originality of topics. It introduces the ways in which the current generation reads the overall works of Freire and Illich in the search for a reconstructed democratic education. As a result, Rethinking Freire and Illich presents Freire and Illich in light of contemporary issues in this generation, and offers renewed searches for a good and just life and a reconstructed democratic education.
