The Servant: Class estrangement as experience in Grazia Deledda’s Canne al vento     

John Freeman-Moir 《Educational Philosophy and Theory》2013,45(4):420-435

Abstract

The servant lives within the social relations of feudal class estrangement. He is a natural moralist who keeps his eyes and his mind open, amidst the compromises, intricacies, and oppression of being a servant, and he sees and understands a good deal more than those around him. Above all, he is a craftsman of experience who, in making history with only a few resources, lives an examined life, and turns estrangement into a life lived for others. Along the way, and ever sensitive to mundane hope and sorrow—even at the point of death—the servant offers educative insight into some of life’s questions. Within a broadly materialist and pragmatic framework, this article examines the concrete particularity of estrangement in terms of the servant’s actions, desires and relations with others.  相似文献   

Philosophy of Education and the Historical     

《Educational Philosophy and Theory》2013,45(1):25-35

What is citizenship? This question goes back to the political philosophy of Aristotle, and how one answers it will be decisive in determining one's vision of political life. In the last ten to fifteen years, the question of citizenship has aroused a renewed set of extremely lively debates within political philosophy, and Iris Marion Young has certainly occupied an important place within these theoretical debates. In particular, Young—especially in her seminal article, Polity and Group Difference: A critique of the ideal of universal citizenship—has presented a sharp challenge to all political theorists who are in some broad sense intellectually nourished by the tradition of civic republicanism and who think about the theme of citizenship under the influence of civic‐republican conceptions. In essence, Young's argument is that the practices of contemporary liberal society show that the implicit normative promise contained in the idea of a universal citizen identity has not been fulfilled, and therefore we must rethink this notion from the ground up. The purpose of my essay is to review the arguments that constitute Young's challenge to the civic‐republican tradition, with a view to clarifying the following questions: Is Young's political theory aimed at a reconstruction of the idea of citizenship on a normatively more sound basis? Or does her project imply a rejection of the idea of citizenship, and its displacement by an alternative understanding of political membership?  相似文献

Una Perspectiva Crítica Racial de la Opresión Lingüística Desde el Lente de Voces Chicanas     

María Guadalupe Arreguín-Anderson  José Agustín Ruiz-Escalante 《Journal of Latinos & Education》2014,13(1):54-61

En este artículo los autores recurren a voces de personajes chicanos para analizar y discutir la opresión lingüística del méxico americano durante las décadas de 1920 a 1960. Utilizando la teoría racial crítica y la teoría latina del racismo (CRT y LatCrit por sus siglas en inglés) los autores hacen referencia específica a pasajes, documentos históricos y piezas de la literatura para argumentar que cuestiones de poder y racismo han impactado la restricción en el uso del idioma español en los Estados Unidos. De manera específica, se hace referencia a los castigos sufrido por varias generaciones de hispanoparlantes.

In this article, the authors analyze and discuss the linguistic oppression faced by Mexican-Americans from the 1920s to the 1960s as narrated by Chicano voices. Critical Race Theory and Latino/a Critical Race Theory permeate the argument that issues of power and racism have impacted the use of Spanish in the United States. This oppression is reflected in historical documents, passages, and segments of Chicano literature. Specifically, the article describes instances of punishment suffered by several generations of Spanish speakers.  相似文献   

Interpretation of The Birthmark From the Ecofeminism Perspective     

谭宁 《海外英语》2014,(11):198-199

Ecofeminism is a social and political movement which points to the existence of considerable common ground between environmentalism and feminism, with some currents linking deep ecology and feminism. Ecofeminists think that there are many similarities between the nature and women, one of which is the oppression posed by men. In some pieces of Nathaniel Hawthorne's works, readers can find some of the ecofeminism thoughts. In this paper, the author analyzes one of Nathaniel Hawthorne's great short stories—TheBirthmark—from the ecofeminism perspective.  相似文献

Teachers’ Reflections on the Perceptions of Oppression and Liberation in Neo-Marxist Critical Pedagogies     

《Educational Philosophy and Theory》2013,45(10):992-1004

Abstract

Critical pedagogy speaks of teachers as liberating and transformative intellectuals.Yet their voice is absent from its discourse.The emancipatory action research, described in this article, created a dialogue between teachers and the ideas concerning oppression and liberation found in Neo-Marxist pedagogies. It strongly suggests that teachers can contribute to the further development of these ideas. It indicates that Critical Theory’s perceptions of the totality of oppression were largely accepted by these teachers after their own inner-reflective processes.Yet, the teachers rejected the dyadic perception of oppressors and oppressed, and that of the ‘victimization’ of the subject, as they perceived such an approach to weaken the subject and exempt him/her from the struggle for liberation. They also highlighted the problematic aspects of positive utopia, which many of the critical pedagogies share, and offered a modest, yet intellectually rich perception of the struggle for liberation. As opposed to the static positive utopia that many of Neo-Marxist pedagogies offer, they suggested a dynamic and subjective perception of liberation; one that is neither restricted by the past nor by locality. This research suggests that teachers could well make a valuable contribution to the formation of a new counter-education. And that the development of a new pedagogical language in education could benefit by being done with them rather than for them.  相似文献
