Abstract: | In this text I discuss two events in which I learned something important about life and about education in order to formulate
in a precise manner two propositions for my pedagogical creed. In focus for both are the interrelatedness of theory and life.
The stories are told through the lenses of Emmanuel Levinas’s and Jacques Rancière’s thinking, but the stories also are shown
to be essential in my understanding of their thinking. The first story is about learning ethics as a consequence of meeting
an old man on a remote island and the second story is about teaching, when a young girl in a situation of war taught me something
important about political life. In a final section I discuss briefly what those theoretical/practical experiences and memories
bring to my understanding of education. |
