阿里斯托芬“教育政治学”探析——以《云神》和《蛙》为主

Aristophanes' Political Pedagogy——A Case Study of Clouds and Frogs

阿里斯托芬是古希腊"百家争鸣"时期最重要的著作家之一,在其喜剧《云神》和《蛙》中分别考察了学校教育和诗教的本质。阿里斯托芬认为,无论是学校教育还是诗歌教育都应该与城邦的福祉相联系,而非个人的、与城邦福祉相脱离的兴趣偏好。这就意味着教育在本质上是政治学的,即教育政治学是教育的本相。这种观念不仅是在哲学(即"好智")发生之时对于"好智"观念下公民教育观的反拨,也是对于现代教育中"个人主义"泛滥和惟"创新意识"是瞻倾向的当头棒喝。

As one among the most primary authors in the duration of ＂A Hundred Schools of Thoughts＂ in ancient Greece, Aristophanes separately criticized the nature of school and poetic education mainly in Clouds and Frogs. He insists that both the school and poetic education should be in connection with αγαθo＇c of polis. Therefore, it is in Aristophanes＇ opinion that political pedagogy is the essence of education. This opinion is not only a reaction against the educational view of the citzens in the context of philosophic outlooks when the philosophy originally appeared, but also a sharp warning against the tendence of extreme individulism and innovativeness in the educational views of our time.
