Education in Hegel

Nigel Tubbs is Professor of Philosophical and Educational Thought in the Faculty of Education at the University of Winchester. He has written widely on philosophy in education, and has been published by Kluwer, Blackwell and Palgrave.

"Education in Hegel: the title alludes least of all to education as a theme in Hegel. Rather, it points to an education in and through Hegel, of an educative experience transformed by his restless gaze. In this magisterial book, Nigel Tubbs puts in question everything we think we know about either Hegel or education. Recasting the adventure of self-consciousness as an unending, perilous process of learning and unlearning, he urges not only a new philosophy of education, but a rethinking of philosophy as education. The result is fascinating, provocative and in every sense educative." - Josh Cohen, Reader in English and Comparative Literature, Goldsmiths University of London
