The Tragic Sense of Education.
Overview & Synopsis
When education is regarded with a "tragic sense," both pessimism and utopianism are avoided. The tragic sense refers to an awareness of impediments to success, prospects for failure, and limits to one's efforts. Tragic circumstances in education are discussed, in addition to pragmatism as a philosophical approach to education. (IAH)
