Filmed School - Desire, Transgression and the Filmic Fantasy of Pedagogy

Informationen zum Autor James Stillwaggon is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Iona College, USA, where his teaching and writing focus on the place of philosophical ideals in democratic education. David Jelinek is Professor of Art and Art History at Collegiate School, USA. His research and writing focus on the relationship between teachers and students in film. A solo installation of his, Money Down, was exhibited at the Andrew Edlin Gallery in Manhattan. Zusammenfassung The image of teaching projected in the media has always suffered from polarized division: on the one hand, teachers appear as selfless heroes, and on the other, teachers are society’s failures, whose ambition and desires introduce moral contagion to our places of formal learning. This book explores these contradictory images of teaching through the relational concept of transference. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Moving Pictures: The Fantasy of Authority 2.
