To devise a theory of education is to address the questions of
culture, cultural values and cultural identity formation in the
child. In this original study, Robert Mitchell gives us a scholarly
overview of cultural education in America's schools. He
demonstrates how the public trust of universal education fails our
children and our democracy. He then advocates reframing our concept
of education in terms of a sacred trust that teaches the culture of
democracy. Turning to the question of the role of the teacher, Mr.
Mitchell weaves together anecdotal evidence of a teacher archetype
with advanced theories in archetypal psychology. This compelling
work breaks new ground to provide us with a refreshingly new and
visionary approach to K-12 education.
