Edusemiotics addresses an emerging field of inquiry, educational
semiotics, as a philosophy of and for education. Using "sign" as a
unit of analysis, educational semiotics amalgamates philosophy,
educational theory and semiotics. Edusemiotics draws on the
intellectual legacy of such philosophers as John Dewey, Charles
Sanders Peirce, Gilles Deleuze and others across Anglo-American and
continental traditions. This volume investigates the specifics of
semiotic knowledge structures and processes, exploring current
dilemmas and debates regarding self-identity, learning,
transformative and lifelong education, leadership and
policy-making, and interrogating an important premise that still
haunts contemporary educational philosophy: Cartesian dualism. In
defiance of substance dualism and the fragmentation of knowledge
that still inform education, the book offers a unifying paradigm
for education as edusemiotics and emphasises ethical education in
compliance with the semiotic unity between knowledge and action.
Chapters contain accessible discussions in the context of
educational philosophy and theory, crossing the borders between
logic, art, and science together with a provocative theoretical
critique. Recently awarded a PESA book award for its contribution
to the philosophy of education, Edusemiotics will appeal to an
academic readership in education, philosophy and cultural studies,
while also being an inspiring resource for students.
