Anthropologically: there is a way I am, and the way I am to be, or not to be. How are we to explain this? This book presents the argument that human nature is both complex and complicated in at least two specific ways--ontologically and ethically. In our being we are indisputably good, dignified, worthy, important, or even noble. But in our morality we are ambivalent--capable of both good and evil, the humane and the inhumane. In his paramount work Jan Amos Comenius expresses the goal of his lifelong endeavor: \"to help keep man from falling into a non-man\" (Pampaedia). If human beings are to become what they ought to be, they need to be educated towards humanity, says Comenius. But the fundamental question is, what is a human being? And what ought one to be? \"Salt ought to be salty. A river ought to be clear. A knife ought to be sharp. But what ought a person to be?\" What is the essence of our humanity? And how can that be cultivated or educated? This book presents Comenius's answers to these questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJan Habl is a professor of pedagogy at universities in Usti nad Labem and Hradec Kralove (Czech Republic).\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 202\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 8.9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 21, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42779840053344,"sku":"9781532600562","price":57.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/AlKKflfTuD9781532600562.webp?v=1780199751","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/on-being-humane-comenius-pedagogical-humanization-as-an-anthropological-problem-paperback","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
