Senses of knowing : a celebration of the pursuit of knowledge
Why should economists study philosophy and literature? How are contemporary art and fiction related to learning? What might an educational ideal for our age look like?
Senses of Knowing is a celebration of broadened horizons. Inside, Lars Strannegård explains how aesthetic experiences can be key to understanding others, interpreting big-picture developments in the light of established fact, and making sense of the present by tracing its causes in the past.
Education, of both heart and mind, is the engine that drives human progress and social life. That’s why we mustn’t reduce our schools and seats of higher learning to little more than places where short-term labour market demands are satisfied. On the contrary, we must recognize our educational institutions as the foundation on which any empathic and democratic society depends.
