This book uses contemporary film to articulate a philosophical
account of raising children. It forms part of a revaluation of the
parent as a pedagogical figure, which stands in contrast to the
instrumental accounts dominant in contemporary 'parenting' culture.
Hodgson and Ramaekers use film in order to offer an affirmative
account of the experience of raising children, as a presentation of
those inevitable aspects and experiences that upbringing is: the
initiation into language and the world; the representative nature
of the parent; and the maintaining of mundane practices that
constitute our shared culture and community. The films which are
discussed are taken as grammatical investigations and enable the
authors to develop an account of the use of film in education and
as educational philosophy, and to respond to each film's invitation
to articulate the existential dimensions of raising children.
Philosophical Presentations of Raising Children will be of interest
to students and scholars across a range of disciplines, including
education, sociology, philosophy, critical parenting studies and
film studies.
