About The Book:
This insightful volume by Bernard Curtis brings a phenomenological perspective to education, offering a rich stimulus for educational philosophy. Originally published in 1978, the essays delve deeply into themes from phenomenology and existentialism, focusing on the development of self-consciousness and its influence on educational thought.
Curtis examines Kierkegaard’s quest for personal truth and the role of imagination, alongside explorations of cognitive development influenced by Piaget and Merleau-Ponty. The book thoughtfully distinguishes between rote memorization and meaningful remembering as key to self-image formation. It further investigates the dynamics between children and teachers, and the impact of social isolation on childhood development, referencing Sartre’s own experiences.
Ideal for philosophers, psychologists, sociologists, educators, and anyone interested in the philosophical underpinnings of education, this collection presents profound reflections on how understanding self-consciousness can shape educational theory and practice.
