The Troubadour of Knowledge

Year: 1997

Type: book

Abstract: In this wide-ranging meditation on learning and difference, Serres explores numerous pathways in philosophy, science, and literature to argue that the best contemporary education requires knowledge of both science's general truths and literature's singular stories. He heralds a new pedagogy, which claims that from the crossbreeding of the humanities and the sciences a new educational ideal can be born: the troubadour of knowledge.
