| Title: | Why general education?: Peters, Hirst and history |
| Open access status: | An open access version is available from UCL Discovery |
| Language: | English |
| Additional information: | This locates Peters' account of intellectual study for its own sake as the core of education within a tradition stretching back to early radical Protestantism. Religious justifications of an encyclopaedic knowledge-based curriculum gave way to psychological and then philosophical justifications of intellectual education, including those of Peters and HIrst. The definitive version is available at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com. |
