This book examines the interconnections between self-consciousness
and self-cultivation (Bildung). Drawing on resources both
philosophical and historical, it probes the various ways in which
self-cultivation stands or falls on a theory of self-consciousness.
Heavily indebted to Classical German Philosophy, this book examines
the twists and turns self-cultivation has taken through 200 years
of philosophical and educational thought. Self-cultivation in one
form or another has always been prevalent in Germany specifically,
and Europe generally- even in those cases where varieties of
self-cultivation are themselves in opposition to earlier projects
and programs. Self-cultivation, however, never became a focus of
North American educational theory and this book examines why this
is, and what would need to be in place for a theory of
self-cultivation to prosper. In the final section, this book
examines the requirements for a new theory of self-consciousness in
the context of self-cultivation.
