Education of the Emotions: The Rationality of Feeling.
Best, David
Oxford Review of Education, v14 n2 p239-49 1988
Addresses the question of whether education of the emotions is a coherent possibility. Argues that much confusion on the topic derives from the common myth of the separate and opposed faculties of feeling and reason, often reflected in misguided curriculum practice. Finds that education of emotions is a crucially important possibility, requiring individual authenticity, not the imposition of norms. (GEA)
