The Generation of the Common Sense and the Path of Liberal Education

以"共通感"为切入点,强调通识教育的意义就是把不同专业的学生聚在一起,通过对具有普遍性知识的共同关注而建立一种共通感,以缓解专业教育造成的孤立主义困境。赫钦斯、施特劳斯、布卢姆等提出以阅读经典这一出色的老办法,以走向某种普遍性,实现人与人、过去与现在的理解和交流。因此,经典阅读作为通识教育的一种可能路径,提供了人与人、我们与人类以往的最佳思维联系的基础。

It emphasizes the significance of liberal education by the common sense as a starting point, specifically, making the university students from different majors gather together, which aims to alleviate the plight of isolationism professional education caused by setting up a kind of common sense through paying common attention to general knowledge. Hutchins, Strauss and Bloom etc, propose a traditional excellent way, reading the classics, in order to be in the way of some kind of universe and achieve the communication and understanding between one person to another person, and between the past and the present. As a result, as a possible path of general education, reading the classics provides us with the related basis of the best thoughts between one person to another person, and between us and the human.
