The playing child explores space and time. Education is the part of others in this play. It is fashion to interrupt me here by pointing at the view of Soviet pedagogists who restrict education to the influence of authorities. This is, indeed, a good reason for me to reject Soviet pedagogy: In education the others are parents and teachers, but playmates and lovers as well. Education is everything that takes the child seriously in its play. The rest, pedagogic in its pretensions or not, is not education but terror. |
