초록
Philosophy of education today is a highly specialized discipline, which sprang from the modern ideal of science. However, if we go back to its origin in ancient Greece, we find the situation quite different. At that time, philosophy of education (paideia) was philosophy par excellence. Philosophy of Socrates and Plato was a response to the crisis of the Peloponnesian War, at the roots of which they saw a crisis of education. In addition to this, this original philosophy of education was a practical proposal of a special way of life characterized by justice and temperance, not just a theory. A similar trait of philosophy of education can also be found in Confucianism, which proposed a way of life characterized by jen and li. This original character of classical philosophy of education suffered great damage through the epistemological turn in the seventeenth century. The powerlessness that haunts modern philosophy of education is a result of this loss. In order to overcome this powerlessness, philosophy of education should fight against specialization and try to bring different disciplines into conversation. In addition to this, it should retrieve its original character of the philosophy as a way of life.
Abstract
Philosophy of education today is a highly specialized discipline, which sprang from the modern ideal of science. However, if we go back to its origin in ancient Greece, we find the situation quite different. At that time, philosophy of education (paideia) was philosophy par excellence. Philosophy of Socrates and Plato was a response to the crisis of the Peloponnesian War, at the roots of which they saw a crisis of education. In addition to this, this original philosophy of education was a practical proposal of a special way of life characterized by justice and temperance, not just a theory. A similar trait of philosophy of education can also be found in Confucianism, which proposed a way of life characterized by jen and li. This original character of classical philosophy of education suffered great damage through the epistemological turn in the seventeenth century. The powerlessness that haunts modern philosophy of education is a result of this loss. In order to overcome this powerlessness, philosophy of education should fight against specialization and try to bring different disciplines into conversation. In addition to this, it should retrieve its original character of the philosophy as a way of life.
