William Armstrong Percy III maintains that Cretan sages established a system under which a young warrior in his early twenties took a teenager of his own aristocratic background as a beloved until the age of thirty, when service to the state required the older partner to marry. The practice spread with significant variants to other Greek-speaking areas. In some places it emphasized development of the athletic, warrior individual, while in others both intellectual and civic achievement were its goals. In Athens it became a vehicle of cultural transmission, so that the best of each older cohort selected, loved, and trained the best of the younger. Pederasty was from the beginning both physical and emotional, the highest and most intense type of male bonding. These pederastic bonds, Percy believes, were responsible for the rise of Hellas and the "Greek miracle": in two centuries the population of Attica, a mere 45,000 adult males in six generations, produced an astounding number of great men who laid the enduring foundations of Western thought and civilization. ![]() Free Download Pedagogies for Development: The Politics and Practice of Child-Centred Education in India By Arathi Sriprakash (auth.) 2012 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 9400726686 | PDF | 3 MB Pedagogies for Development takes a sociological approach to examine the introduction of child-centred education in contemporary Indian policy and school contexts. It investigates the promise of democratic learning in development discourses to ask how far child-centred models can address poverty and social inequalities in rural Indian communities. Drawing on in-depth ethnographic research conducted in the south Indian state of Karnataka, the book offers a multi-level analysis of international, national and state education practices of pedagogic reform. The book contributes to pressing debates about how 'quality' education should be conceptualised and assessed in development contexts, and brings into focus the assumptions which associate schooling to social justice. ![]() Free Download Pazifismus als Diskurs By Gertrud Brücher (auth.) 2009 | 306 Pages | ISBN: 3531159534 | PDF | 2 MB Die Provokation unserer Zeit lautet: Mit Globalisierung, „neuen Kriegen" und internationalem Terrorismus sind Krieg und Frieden, Innen- und Außenpolitik, Kämpfer und Zivilisten ununterscheidbar geworden. Der konflikt- und friedensbezogenen Forschung scheint die Wirklichkeit weggebrochen zu sein, für die sie ihre Modelle entwickelt hatte. Wie reagiert eine dem Frieden verschriebene Theorie und Bewegung auf diese Herausforderung? Das Buch verfolgt die Paradoxien, aber auch die Auswege dieses Denkens der Friedenspraxis in ihren Stadien. ![]() Free Download Paulo Freire: Teaching for Freedom and Transformation: The Philosophical Influences on the Work of Paulo Freire By John Dale, Emery J. Hyslop-Margison (auth.) 2011 | 172 Pages | ISBN: 9048190991 | PDF | 2 MB A lack of in-depth philosophical analysis has left an unacceptable deficit in the understanding, appreciating and applying of Paulo Freire's work. This lack of analysis promotes frequent misconceptions and creates superficial practice within education. Indeed, the philosophical assumptions contributing to Freire's critical pedagogy require significant intellectual effort to identify, unravel, and ultimately evaluate on the basis of their epistemic, moral and pedagogical tenability. This book generates a far richer and yet more accessible understanding of Freire's theories. It does so because such important ideas, values and attitudes should not suffer from classroom superficiality. Ideas such as banking education, conscientization and humanization are debased when they are reduced to slogans lacking the intellectual support they deserve. In order to understand such terms and their origins more fully, a more in depth examination of Freire's concepts and their philosophical origins is desperately needed. This accessible book provides teachers, students and others with precisely such an examination of Freire's ideas on transformative education. ![]() Free Download Pauline Gower, Pioneering Leader of the Spitfire Women by Alison Hill English | April 1, 2023 | ISBN: 075099682X | 256 pages | PDF | 9.88 Mb Pauline Gower MBE was the pioneering leader of the Spitfire women during the Second World War. ![]() Free Download Patterns for College Writing: A Rhetorical Reader and Guide By Laurie G.
