Based on the Norton Lectures\n\u003cbr\u003eon the art and traditions of teaching, Lessons of the\n\u003cbr\u003eMasters evokes many exemplary figures: Socrates and Plato, Jesus\n\u003cbr\u003eand his disciples, Virgil and Dante, Brahe and Kepler, Husserl and Heidegger,\n\u003cbr\u003eamong others.\n\u003cbr\u003eFundamental to the evolution of Western culture are Socrates and\n\u003cbr\u003eJesus, charismatic teachers who left no written teachings nor\n\u003cbr\u003efounded schools. In the efforts of their disciples, in the accounts of\n\u003cbr\u003epassion inspired by their death, Steiner sees the beginnings of an\n\u003cbr\u003einner vocabulary, the encrypted recognitions of a large part of\n\u003cbr\u003eour moral, philosophical, and theological language.\n\u003cbr\u003eHe then analyzes a series of traditions and disciplines, referring to three\n\u003cbr\u003eunderlying themes: the master's power to exploit the disciple's dependence and\n\u003cbr\u003evulnerability; the complementary threat of subversion and\n\u003cbr\u003ebetrayal to the mentor; and the reciprocal exchange of trust and love, of\n\u003cbr\u003elearning and teaching between professor and student.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"George Steiner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43060885684472,"sku":"9789875667419","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/4897\/5608\/products\/lecciones-de-los-maestros_1f3a0219-b58e-40dc-bac3-e2bd282d2034.jpg?v=1658291043","url":"https:\/\/ellector.com.pa\/es\/products\/libro-lecciones-de-los-maestros","provider":"Librerías El Lector Panamá","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
