The focus of this volume is on illuminating how local educational
traditions developed in particular contexts around the world before
or during the encounter with European early modern culture. In this
vein, this volume breaks from the common narrative of educational
historiography privileging the imposition of European structures
and its consequences on local educational traditions. Such a
narrative lends to historiographical prejudice that fosters a
distorted image of indigenous educational cultures as
"historyless," as if history was brought to them merely through the
influence of European models. Fifteen multi-disciplinary scholars
globally have contributed with surveys and perspectives on the
history of local traditions in countries from around the globe
before their own modernities. Contributors include: Guochang Shen,
Yongyan Wang, Xia Shen, Gaetan Rappo, Sunghwan Hwang, Jan S.
Aritonang, Mere Skerrett, Saiyid Zaheer Husain Jafri, Zackery M.
Heern, Judith Francis Zeitlin, Layla Jorge Teixeira Cesar, Mustafa
Gunduz, Igor Fedyukin, Edit Szegedi, Inese Runce, Sigurdur Gylfi
Magnusson, and David Olafsson.
