Listen "GMoLS5E26 German Idealists with Donald Clark"
Episode Synopsis
How German philosophy created the modern education system. Why is education the way it is? Why does the bell ring to signal the end of a lesson? Who invented teacher training? Why do universities combine teaching with research? It might surprise you to learn that the answers to these questions can be found in the writings of early 19th Century German philosophers. This episode looks at the German Idealists, a group including Kant and Hegel, inspired by the Enlightenment and the spirit of Romanticism following the French Revolution, who set the mould for the education systems of today. 00:00 - Intro 00:58 - Introducing the German Idealists 05:59 - Immanuel Kant (1724 – 1804) 18:45 - Johann Friedrich Herbart (1776 - 1841) 26:29 - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770 – 1831) 45:20 - Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767-1825) 57:34 - Summing up The Blog that started it all: https://donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/2021/09/these-were-written-as-quick-readable.html Kant bit.ly/3wIBsk9 Herbart bit.ly/30rdE8w Hegel bit.ly/3qGvkYO Humboldt bit.ly/2OQzyZS Contact Donald X: @DonaldClark LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donald-clark-04553022/ Blog: http://donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/ Contact John Helmer X: @johnhelmer LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhelmer/ Website: https://learninghackpodcast.com/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LearningHack/
