  • I and Thou: The educational lessons of Martin Buber's dialogue with the conflicts of his times

    W John Morgan, Alexandre Guilherme•ARTICLE•Educational Philosophy and Theory•2010•Cited by: 10•References: 4

    Most of what has been written about Buber and education tend to be studies of two kinds: theoretical studies of his philosophical views on education, and specific case studies that aim at putting theory into practice. The perspective taken has always been to hold a dialogue with Buber's works in order to identify and analyse critically Buber's views and, in some cases, to put them into practice; that is, commentators dialogue with the text. In th…

  • Discussing education by means of metaphors

    Alexandre Guilherme, Alex Guilherme et al.•ARTICLE•Educational Philosophy and Theory•2016•Cited by: 9•References: 8

    Metaphors help us understand a concept by resorting to the imaginary because it is sometimes difficult to do so through the use of words alone. Thinkers have made use of metaphors to not only describe ‘falling in love’, ‘the pain of losing someone dear to us’, but also to describe particular concepts both in arts and sciences. In fact, the use of metaphors in some disciplines, particularly the sciences, is now regarded as something essential for …

    Entre 2014 e 2016, projetos de lei (PLs) que possibilitam reviver experiências passadas em novo formato e contexto foram apresentados nas duas casas legislativas brasileiras.

Essas propostas são inspiradas em um movimento alegadamente apartidário e anti-ideológico autodenominado Movimento Escola sem Partido. O objetivo desse artigo é d…

    Research into violence in schools has been growing steadily at an international level, and has shown high degrees of violence at various different levels. Given the seriousness of the problem, finding ways of responding to this issue in schools becomes an imperative for educationists. In this article, we engage with this problem by defending the view that whilst violence might be endemic in schools, there are also real possibilities for working t…

    One issue that is often ignored in political theory is the problem of means and modes of communication affecting dialogue between parties. In this age of hyper communication, this is something particularly relevant. The point here is that, despite the ease with which we have access to both means and modes of communication, there remains the problem of truly communicating and truly dialoguing with the Other. Michel Serres’ work Le Parasite is a se…

    Education has two distinct but interconnected layers. There is an outer layer concerned with knowledge transfer and skills and an inner layer concerned with the development of character and relationships with others, both individually and socially. This inner layer provides the individual with the capacity to influence and to change society. In that sense, such an inner layer is 'political'. In this article we argue that the 'political' in educat…

    Merleau-Ponty's theory of ‘embodiment’, of the body as mediator of the world, has been very influential in philosophical and educational circles. This is to say, according to the theory of ‘embodiment’, the body is central to one's ‘understanding’ of the world, to one's engagement with Others, as well as to one's self-transformation. As such, a fundamental question arises: what are the implications for the individual's interaction with Others whe…

  • Schelling’s Naturphilosophie Project: Towards a Spinozian Conception of Nature

    Alexandre Guilherme•ARTICLE•South African Journal of Philosophy•2010•References: 14

    Various commentators have acknowledged the fact that Schelling was influenced by Spinoza’s philosophical views (cf. Bowie 1993, 2003; Copleston 1963; Esposito 1977; White 1983; Lawrence 2003; Hegel 1995; Beiser 2002; Richards 2002).

However, the extent of Spinoza’s influence on Fichte has not been spelled out in much detail. In response to this I propose to do two things.

The reasons why education is an exception to the rule have not been explored in detail, and efforts seem always to concentrate on the ‘compulsory’ side of the tension …
