This rich and continually expanding compendium of historical and more recent essays, research, and references is a testament to the growing interest in Dewey’s intellectual work and his measurable impact in the United States and throughout the world.

Book Synopsis The Resistant Writer by : Charles Paine
Download or read book The Resistant Writer written by Charles Paine and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1999-02-11 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Resistant Writer integrates two lively sub-fields in rhetoric and composition: nineteenth-century composition history and contemporary issues about teaching cultural studies in composition. Examining the broad cultural anxieties that nineteenth-century intellectuals faced reveals that training in composition was envisioned as more than the means for producing competent writers. The training also reacted to and tried to ameliorate the nineteenth-century "crisis in public discourse," this one brought about not by television, commodity capitalism, or the World Wide Web, but by the then-dominant medium of public discussion, the newspaper. Paine carefully reveals that today's writing teachers are not the first to desire that the composition classroom have social import beyond the academy. These thoughtful new insights from composition's origins form an intriguing critique of contemporary "cultural studies and composition" theories of student transformation.

Book Synopsis Centres of Learning by : Hendrik Jan Willem Drijvers
Download or read book Centres of Learning written by Hendrik Jan Willem Drijvers and published by BRILL. This book was released on 1995 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Centres of Learning" deals with the relation between learning and the locations in which that learning is carried out. It is the editors' belief that the character (and, in part, the content) of a particular aspect of learning is determined - or at least influenced - by the circumstances in which the learning process takes place. The contributions in this book deal with various aspects of learning, in a broad historical and geographical perspective, which ranges from Ancient Babylon, via classical Greece and Rome, and the Middle East (both Christian and Islamic), through to the Latin and vernacular cultures of the Christian West in the Middle Ages and the Early Renaissance.

Book Synopsis The Ages of Two-faced Janus by : Tabitta Van Nouhuys
Download or read book The Ages of Two-faced Janus written by Tabitta Van Nouhuys and published by BRILL. This book was released on 1998 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the tracts - Latin and vernacular - published in the Netherlands on the comets of 1577 and 1618. Central to the book is the question of how these cometary appearances influenced the Aristotelian world view. This is the first lengthy examination of the decline of Aristotelian cosmology in the Netherlands. Its demonstration of the connection between cosmological and political views renders the book useful to historians of general Dutch history, as well as historians of science.

Book Synopsis The Psalms Commentary of Gilbert of Poitiers by : Theresa Gross-Diaz
Download or read book The Psalms Commentary of Gilbert of Poitiers written by Theresa Gross-Diaz and published by BRILL. This book was released on 1996 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book makes available to scholars the unpublished proto-scholastic "Commentary on the Psalms," composed by one of the outstanding figures of the early twelfth century, Gilbert of Poiters (Gilbert Porreta). The commentary had its origins in the atmosphere of experimentation which characterized the schools of Laon, Chartres and Paris in the first decades of the century. Its unique "mise en page," its methodology and its connection to other texts - especially glossed classical texts, the "Glossa ordinaria" and the writings of Peter Lombard - are explored. Gilbert's "Commentary" is a text critical for the understanding of the development of the discipline of theology in the twelfth century schools.
