About the Book: Education Philosphy and Practice
The anthology Education: Philosophy and Practice, an academic initiative of the
Centre for Sri Aurobindo Studies, Jadavpur University, elaborates and analyses
various strands of Sri Aurobindos thoughts on education. Sri Aurobindo divorced
from history (especially from the very political atmosphere of the period, when
it was a colonial India) is difficult to situate. the present study, keeping Sri
Aurobindos ideas on education central to it, also explores classical Indian
model of education, the Bengal National model for education and also explores
viewpoints of some of his distinguished contemporaries like Rabindranath Tagore,
Mahatma Gandhi, Jiddu.
