This book brings out the need for lifelong learning theory and
explores how it is possible from a postmodern perspective. The book
uses life history that has gained its popularity in social science
research to overcome the dichotomy between individual and society
or between agency and structure. Life history also reflects the
postmodern or late-modern conditions of social life. In this book,
the author uses a collection of published oral history narratives
of famous Korean artists and craftsmen. The author maps out life
and learning of five such artists and craftsmen with figurations of
escaping, creating, controlling and formalizing. These figurations
are images of 'Rhizoactivity' that the author proposes as a new
conceptual tool to navigate lifelong learning from a postmodern
perspective. This book signalises a new way of theory building in
the field of adult and lifelong education. The Life and Learning of
Korean Artists and Craftsmen: Rhizoactivity conceptualises: Adult
learning in terms of postmodern and lifelong learning conditions
Life histories as a method of researching lifelong learning The
four facets of artistic journeys - escaping, creating, controlling
and formalizing This book will interest researchers focusing on
lifelong and adult education. Its use of social theories in its
study of lifelong learning amongst Korean artists will also
interest sociologists and educators concerned with the sociology of
education.
