This text articulates how and why suffering can be pedagogical in
character and how it is often key to authentic and meaningful acts
of teaching and learning. This is an ancient idea from the Greek
tragedies of Aeschylus (c. 525 BCE) - pathei mathos or "learning
through suffering". In our understandable rush to ameliorate
suffering at every turn and to consider every instance of it as an
error to be avoided at all costs, we explore how the pedagogy that
can come from suffering becomes obscured and something vital to a
rich and vibrant pedagogy can be lost. This collection threads
through education, nursing, psychiatry, ecology, and medicine,
through scholarship and intimate breaths, and blends together
affinities between hermeneutic conceptions of the cultivation of
character and Buddhist meditations on suffering and its locale in
our lives. This book will be useful for graduate courses on
hermeneutic research in education, educational psychology,
counseling, and nursing/medicine.
