John Dewey

    20 octobre 1859 – 1 juin 1952

    John Dewey était un philosophe et réformateur de l'éducation américain, reconnu comme l'un des fondateurs du pragmatisme. Sa pensée s'est concentrée sur la réforme éducative, prônant l'apprentissage par la pratique plutôt que par la mémorisation. Dewey croyait que les idées devaient être jugées selon leurs résultats et rejetait les dogmes figés. Son œuvre a profondément influencé la pédagogie et la réforme sociale.

      Contemporary theories of art often exhibit inconsistency, blending modern interpretations with inherited views from ancient Greece. Greek theory posits that art is a practice tied to subjective experience, which is seen as inferior to science, considered the sole true revelation of reality. Science offers an untainted view of the world, while art is linked to production, deemed a lesser activity associated with mechanics and slaves. This perspective has shaped the understanding of both fine arts and useful crafts, positioning art as a reflection of human wants and preferences rather than an objective truth. The contrast between art and science highlights a longstanding debate about the nature of reality and the value of artistic expression. This work serves as a significant historical reference, utilizing advanced technology to preserve the original format while addressing imperfections in the text. It aims to maintain the integrity of the work while providing insights into the evolving relationship between art and education.
