Nota di contenuto

In search of light in democracy and education: Deweyan growth in an age of nihilism -- Dewey between Hegel and Darwin -- Emerson's voice: Dewey beyond Hegel and Darwin -- Emersonian moral perfectionism: gaining from the closeness between Dewey and Emerson -- Dewey's Emersonian view of ends -- Growth and the social reconstruction of criteria: gaining from the distance between Dewey and Emerson -- The gleam of light: reconstruction toward holistic growth -- The gleam of light lost: transcending the tragic with Dewey after Emerson -- The rekindling of the gleam of light: toward perfectionist education.

Sommario/riassunto

Saito reads Dewey's idea of progressive education through the lens of Emersonian moral perfectionism. 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.
