Martin Heidegger is, perhaps, the most controversial philosopher of
the twentieth-century. Little has been written on him or about his
work and its significance for educational thought. This unique
collection by a group of international scholars reexamines Heidegger's
work and its legacy for educational thought. Thematically, the
collection focuses on Heidegger's critique of modernity and
contributors investigate the central significance for education of
Heidegger's ontology and his investigation of the question of the
meaning of Being by examining his 'art of teaching' (a translation of
his submission to the denazification hearing), his view of science and
reason, his philosophy of technology, his poetics, and the
implications of his thought for learning. These essays point to the
crucial importance of Heidegger's work for understanding modern,
highly-technologized forms of education and for the possibilities of
redemption from its worst excesses.
