This book explores the lived meanings of being a university
educator from an existential perspective. The book enriches our
understanding of educators' experiences in light of Martin
Heidegger's early philosophy, and vice versa (opening our
understanding of Heidegger's philosophy through educators'
experiences). Also drawing on the philosophical insights of
Hans-Georg Gadamer, the book situates the purposes and experiences
of the 'educator' in historical and contemporary contexts. In doing
so, the author reveals that being a university educator is
essentially characterised by conversation and time. Inspired by the
author's own experiences of teaching community development and
sociology within a youth-work specific bachelor degree, the book
invites educators to apply existential philosophy as a tool to
reflect upon their own experiences and to reconnect with the
question of what it means to be an educator in their shared world
of practice. This thoughtful volume is sure to resonate with the
experiences of readers who educate within a university context.
