Bridge and abyss: Ambivalence of emotionality and holistic education

Publication at Faculty of Education |
2021

Abstract

The world of emotions is ambivalent. This chapter distinguishes several levels of that ambivalence, posing a fundamental question about the extent to which contemporary family, school and society are able to cultivate all aspects of a human being, including his or her emotions and feelings.

Do we need to educate our hearts? And may anthropology be helpful in that endeavour?
