Can the syllabus constitute the curriculum? In this volume, Rocha
explores curriculum theory through the lens of the syllabus. By
critiquing curriculum studies and the entire field of education,
overrun by the social sciences, Rocha provides an integrated vision
of philosophy of education and curriculum theory, rooted in the
humanities. Through an original reconceptualization, this text
draws from a broad range of sources - ranging from Classical
Antiquity to the present - offering a rich context for
understanding curriculum as a philosophically salient concept,
contained within the syllabus. The Syllabus as Curriculum features
actual syllabi created and taught by the author in undergraduate
and graduate courses at the University of British Columbia, Canada.
These curated syllabi work as exemplars and media, supported by
pedagogical commentary and context. Inspired by Augustine's
Confessions, each part of the book culminates in a metaphorical
"garden," which serves as a meditation on the syllabus in three
senses: correspondence, essay, and outline. An original, powerful,
and corrective contribution to the literature on curriculum
studies, this work invites teachers and scholars from across the
foundations of education, especially philosophy of education, art
education, and those invested in curriculum theory, to see their
contribution in more direct and integral ways.
