Das Gluck des Lehrers (The Teacher's Happiness).
Higgins, Christopher
Zeitschrift fur Padagogik, v48 n4 p495-513 Jul-Aug 2002
Argues that the ethics of teaching concerns the relationship between the teaching and the good life. Uses Bernard Williams' ethics/morality distinction. Connects the question of "why teach?" with the question "how should I live?" Asks why the practice of teaching is worth it in terms of self growth and monetary gains. (CAJ)
