Book excerpt: In the name of efficiency, the practice of education has come to be dominated by neoliberal ideology and procedures of standardization and quantification. Such attempts to make all aspects of practice transparent and subject to systematic accounting lack sensitivity to the invisible and the silent, to something in the human condition that cannot readily be expressed in an either-or form. Seeking alternatives to such trends, Saito reads Dewey’s idea of progressive education through the lens of Emersonian moral perfectionism (to borrow a term coined by Stanley Cavell). She elucidates a spiritual and aesthetic dimension to Dewey’s notion of growth, one considerably richer than what Dewey alone presents in his typically scientific terminology.

Book Individuality and Beyond

Download or read book Individuality and Beyond written by Benedetta Zavatta and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though few might think to connect the two figures, Ralph Waldo Emerson was an important influence on Friedrich Nietzsche. Specifically, Emerson played a fundamental role in shaping Nietzsche's philosophical ideas on individualism, perfectionism, and the pursuit of virtue, as well as his critiques of social conditioning, religious dogmatism, and anti-natural morality. With Individuality and Beyond, Benedetta Zavatta offers the first philosophical interpretation of Emerson's influence on Nietzsche based on a sound philological analysis of previously unpublished materials from Nietzsche's private library. Nietzsche's collection reveals numerous copies of Emerson's essays covered with annotations and marginalia as Nietzsche revisited these works throughout his life. Through close-reading, Zavatta casts a new light on the ways in which Emerson's work informed Nietzsche's defining ideas of self-creation, the relation between fate and free will, overcoming morality of customs and achieving moral autonomy, and the transvaluation of such values as compassion and altruism. Zavatta organizes these concepts into two main lines of thought: the first concerns the development of the individual personality, or the achievement of intellectual and moral autonomy and original self-expression. The second, on the contrary, concerns the overcoming of individuality and the need to transcend a limited view of the world by continually questioning one's own values and engaging with opposing perspectives. Ultimately, Zavatta clarifies the surprising contributions that Emerson made to 20th century European philosophy. She provides a fresh portrait of Emerson as an American thinker long stereotyped as a na�ve idealist disinterested in the social issues of his day. Seen through the eyes of Nietzsche, his acute interpreter, Emerson becomes an incisive cultural critic, whose contributions underpin contemporary philosophy.

Now ask yourself, would your life be any different today if that imagination was the truth? What if this book ripped away the veil of darkness hiding that reality from you? This book will not only tear away the cloak, but also shatter the lies many have believed for centuries. It will do so in breath taking visions describing the power "in Christ." Immersed In Him will astound and challenge the way you think and respond to perceptions, which are totally unreal. "The power of the enemy is to capture our thoughts and focus them on our past or future. Once you understand that strategy you will be vigilant not to trust images in your mind or feelings in your body."You will discover the true meaning of "The Living Water" and the profound truths hidden in baptism. "Sin, sickness and disease are the spiritual and physical condition of those who drink from the wrong water source." This book will impart amazing revelations that will change sickness to health and death to life. Heaven is open today to those who "know" the truth beyond the clichés and church language confessed without results. "Christ consciousness is "knowing" without learning." You were designed to be an overcomer, not to be overcome. "Nothing is impossible to those who drink from Him and become Immersed In Him."
