Approaches to the History of Written Culture

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2017-08-07

  • Publisher: Springer

This book investigates the history of writing as a cultural practice in a variety of contexts and periods. It analyses the rituals and practices determining intimate or ‘ordinary’ writing as well as bureaucratic and religious writing. From the inscribed images of ‘pre-literate’ societies, to the democratization of writing in the modern era, access to writing technology and its public and private uses are examined. In ten studies, presented by leading historians of scribal culture from seven countries, the book investigates the uses of writing in non-alphabetical as well as alphabetical script, in societies ranging from Native America and ancient Korea to modern Europe. The authors emphasise the material characteristics of writing, and in so doing they pose questions about the definition of writing itself. Drawing on expertise in various disciplines, they give an up-to-date account of the current state of knowledge in a field at the forefront of ‘Book History’.

Public History of Education. A Brief Introduction

Is historical knowledge important for education? How can we build a shared historical knowledge with schools, communities, and education professionals? The book responds to these questions by suggesting the public history approach, as applied in education and, more generally, to all professions that are based on human relations. The public history of education refers directly to North American experiences, but at the same time it is part of a process of European cultural acceptance and re-elaboration that has one of its main points of reference in the Italian Public History Association. The objective is not to make history for the general public, but to make public history with all those interested, in a collaborative and participative context, in the quest for meaningful knowledge, directly related to the current and challenging needs of our society.

La prensa pedagógica de las confesiones religiosas y asociaciones filosóficas

La prensa pedagógica adopta formatos muy diferentes. Es la que producen los profesores de primaria y secundaria, y los de universidad, pero también es la prensa de los niños en las escuelas primarias, de los adolescentes en los colegios e institutos, y de los estudiantes universitarios en Colegios Mayores o asociaciones estudiantiles. A estos campos tan diferentes, pero complementarios, se van dedicando diferentes estudios, congresos y monografías desde hace ya algunos años, y en concreto desde la iniciativa investigadora y difusora del GIR Helmantica Paideia, de la Universidad de Salamanca. La colección Aquilafuente de Ediciones de la Universidad de Salamanca ha editado varios de esto...

Derechos de la infancia y educación inclusiva en América Latina

Desde la aprobación de la Convención sobre los Derechos del Niño en 1989 los países de América Latina hicieron una opción clara al ratificar dicho tratado y desarrollar en sus legislaciones internas los principios relativos a la defensa de los derechos del niño, niña y adolescente. En esta obra se analizan estos derechos desde la perspectiva educativa, tema cada vez más destacado en las agendas nacionales e internacionales. En los tratados internacionales subyace una concepción inclusiva de la educación, razón por la cual los capítulos de este libro abordan de manera particular diversos ámbitos relacionados con la educación inclusiva: políticas educativas, educación inicial ...

La Public History tra scuola, università e territorio

Il volume si articola in dieci saggi (ai quali seguono trenta schede di Best Practices) che nel loro insieme offrono uno sguardo sugli intrecci fra la Public History e la scuola. I contributi riflettono sul valore educativo implicito della Public History articolando esempi e ipotesi di percorsi didattici e educativi. Nell’incontro fra Public History, scuola e Università diversi passaggi del libro aprono alla sistematica integrazione con il territorio, i suoi pubblici e le sue tradizioni identitarie, in relazione con le altre istituzioni educative dei vari contesti locali, primi fra tutti i musei della scuola. Una particolare attenzione è dedicata alle esperienze digitali e al loro grande contributo alla condivisione dei saperi storici.

Raccontare la Resistenza a scuola

La pubblicazione nasce con l’intento di raccogliere gli interventi del ciclo di webinar Raccontare la Resistenza a scuola, tenutosi fra aprile e maggio 2021. Il volume intende consolidare i nessi tra riflessione teorica e storica e la pratica didattica, collocandosi nell’ambito della Storia dell’educazione applicata e della Public History of Education. Il testo è pensato dunque per diventare anche uno strumento agevole per gli studenti universitari e per gli insegnanti in servizio. La pubblicazione risponde quindi a una antica richiesta del mondo della scuola e dà un contributo al dibattito storiografico ancora sguarnito sul fronte storico-educativo.
