  1. (1 other version)Introducing Giovanni Gentile, the ‘Philosopher of Fascism’.Thomas Clayton - 2009 - Educational Philosophy and Theory 41 (6):640-660.
    This essay aims to introduce Giovanni Gentile to scholars of Gramsci studies broadly and Gramsci‐education studies more specifically. The largest part of the essay explores Gentile's academic life, his philosophical agenda, and his political career. Having established a basis for understanding the educational reform Gentile enacted as Mussolini's first Minister of Public Instruction, the essay then surveys the substantial contemporaneous and contemporary English‐language material about it. The essay engages this literature only lightly and briefly in conclusion, for the primary purpose (...)

  • (1 other version)Global English, Hegemony and Education: Lessons from Gramsci.Peter Ives - 2009 - Educational Philosophy and Theory 41 (6):661-683.
    Antonio Gramsci and his concept of hegemony are often invoked in current debates concerning cultural imperialism, globalisation and global English. However, these debates are rarely cognizant of Gramsci's own university training in linguistics, the centrality of language to his writings on education and hegemony, or his specific engagement with language politics in his own day. By paying much greater attention to Gramsci's writings on language and education, this article attempts to lay the groundwork for an adequate approach to the current (...)

  • ‘Relative Ignorance’: Lingua and linguaggio in Gramsci's concept of a formative aesthetic as a concern for power.John Baldacchino - 2011 - Educational Philosophy and Theory 43 (6):579-597.
    This essay looks at the relationship between formative aesthetics, language and the historical anticipation that begins with Antonio Gramsci's discussion of Kant's idea of noumenon. In Gramsci both education (as formazione) and aesthetics stem from a concern for power in terms of the hegemonic relations that are inherent to history as a political horizon. The title cites Gramci's suggestion that Kant's noumenon should be read as a proviso set apart by a ‘relative ignorance’ of reality [‘relativa ignoranza’ della realtà] to (...)

  • (1 other version)The Revolutionary Party in Gramsci's Pre‐Prison Educational and Political Theory and Practice.John D. Holst - 2009 - Educational Philosophy and Theory 41 (6):622-639.
    While most of Gramsci's party work is well known to education scholars of Gramsci, and the educational aspects of his writings have been repeatedly analyzed, what remains a constant in education‐based Gramsci studies is the nearly universal minimization of this work for what it was, namely party work. For Gramsci, it would have been unthinkable to consider this work outside the framework of a revolutionary party. Yet, for contemporary educational scholars it seems unthinkable to consider Gramsci's work within the framework (...)

  • (1 other version)Antonio Gramsci and his Relevance for the Education of Adults.Peter Mayo - 2008 - Educational Philosophy and Theory 40 (3):418-435.
    This paper, drawing on original sources, provides an overview of and a discussion on those writings and ideas, in Antonio Gramsci's huge corpus of work, that are relevant to the education of adults. This should provide a fitting tribute to this major social theorist of the 20th century on the 70th anniversary of his death. Among the topics discussed are those of adult education for industrial democracy, adult education and cultural preparation, adult literacy, prison education, adult education and the Southern (...)
