Sinopse

Early Teaching Methods explores the history of education by examining pre-modern pedagogy, revealing how teaching was conducted for centuries before modern educational theories took hold. This historical textbook argues that these often-dismissed archaic methods actually contain valuable insights into learning and motivation, challenging the assumption that modern methods are superior. For example, learning was deeply intertwined with community values and religious beliefs, a stark contrast to today's standardized curricula. The book highlights the importance of understanding this history for evaluating current educational strategies.

 
The book begins by introducing the dominant educational philosophies of ancient civilizations, the medieval era, and the Renaissance. It then delves into specific techniques like rote learning and memorization techniques, the role of discipline and reward, and the prevalence of individualized instruction. By drawing upon primary sources, archaeological evidence, and historical analyses, Early Teaching Methods offers a unique perspective on the evolution of teaching and learning, valuable for educators, historians, and anyone seeking alternative approaches to education.

No One to Meet - Imitation and...

Raphael Falco

The literary establishment tends to regard Bob Dylan as an intriguing, if baffling, outsider. That changed overnight when Dylan was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature, challenging us to think of him as an integral part of our national and international literary heritage. No One to Meet places Dylan the artist within a long tradition of literary production and offers an innovative way of understanding his unique, and often controversial, methods of composition. 
 
 
 
In lucid prose, Raphael Falco demonstrates the similarity between what Renaissance writers called imitatio and the way Dylan borrows, digests, and transforms traditional songs. Although Dylan's lyrical postures might suggest a post-Romantic, "avant-garde" consciousness, No One to Meet shows that Dylan's creative process borrows from and expands the methods used by classical and Renaissance authors. 
 
 
 
Drawing on numerous examples, including Dylan's previously unseen manuscript excerpts and archival materials, Falco illuminates how the ancient process of poetic imitation, handed down from Greco-Roman antiquity, allows us to make sense of Dylan's musical and lyrical technique. By placing Dylan firmly in the context of an age-old poetic practice, No One to Meet deepens our appreciation of Dylan's songs and allows us to celebrate him as what he truly is: a great writer.
