Montessori and Steiner: A Pattern of Reverse Symmetries.
Coulter, Dee Joy
Montessori Life, v15 n1 p24 Win 2003
Explains the educational movements precipitated by Maria Montessori and Rudolf Steiner as comprising a pattern of reverse symmetries. Notes the influence of war on their philosophies. Discusses reverse symmetries in curriculum related to mathematics, geography, and history. Maintains that each of these two movements holds the other at its core, both honor the child, and both recognize that we cannot accept a gender-based constraint on service. (KB)
