자유교육 기원에 관한 논쟁 검토: 뮤어(J. Muir)의 논의를 중심으로 = The Debate on the Origin of Liberal Education: Focused on Muir`s View

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Liberal education as the pursuit of theoretical knowledge, which was elaborated by P.H Hirst, has been regarded as a typical form of (school) education. Hirst`s theory of liberal education developed the Aristotelian conception of liberal education. It is therefore taken for granted that the origin of liberal education was from Aristotle`s idea. However, J. Muir refuted the generally accepted view. The purpose of this study is to examine Muir`s view on the origin of liberal education. According to him, the common view on the origin of liberal education has a weak stance in two grounds, i.e. lack of historical facts and not justly considering the differences between the philosophical tradition and the educational tradition. He claims that the liberal education was from Isocrates`s idea, for Isocrates established his school prior to Aristotle`s one historically, as well as the school curriculum being based on the seven liberal arts. The question of whether Muir`s view is correct could be answered after examining the relationship between historical facts and philosophical arguments of liberal education, and the validity of his distinction between the philosophical tradition and the educational tradition in detail. Regardless of whether his view on the origin of liberal education is right, it should be noted that there is a striking difference between Hirst`s view and Muir`s view; which was fundamentally due to different conceptions of liberal education., i.e. liberal education as a principle for Hirst and liberal education as a programme for Muir.
