Beskrivning

A rich collection of essays about the inner, shared experiences of participants engaged in second-person approaches to contemplative practice.Catalyzing the Field presents a diverse series of applied case studies about the second-person dimension of contemplative learning in higher education. As a companion volume to the editors' previous book, The Intersubjective Turn, the contributors to this book explore various pedagogical scenarios in which intentional forms of practice create and guide consciousness. Their essays demonstrate that practice is not only intellectual, but somatic, phenomenological, emotional, and spiritual as well. Along with their first book, Contemplative Learning and Inquiry across Disciplines, the editors craft an essential body of work that affirms the fundamental importance of contemplative practice in institutions of higher learning.

Recensioner i media

"The present volume provides an excellent introduction to the topic and to the issues surrounding contemplative learning; chapters provide case studies that explore how this approach is used in many disciplines. The editors are highly qualified to write on these topics, and an excellent group of practitioners across a wide variety of disciplines in higher education have contributed chapters … The material presented in this book is cutting-edge and would be of interest to faculty and researchers in universities that are involved in this approach to pedagogy. Each chapter is insightfully written and well referenced." — CHOICE"Catalyzing the Field makes an important contribution to contemplative education. I especially appreciate its innovative approaches, practical insights, and potential applications." — Louis Komjathy, editor of Contemplative Literature: A Comparative Sourcebook on Meditation and Contemplative Prayer
