Education in Human Creative Existential Planning

Education is the transmission of knowledge and skill from one generation to another, and is vitally significant for the growth and unfolding of the living individual. It manifests the quintessential ability of the logos to differentiate life in self-individualization from within, and in its spread through inter-generative networks. Without reaching the evolutive phase of the human creative condition, the human being establishes a unique creative platform on which to conduct its co-existence. On this platform the progress of life is being transformed from a natural ontopoietic accomplishment into an autonomous achievement of the creative planning of the human mind. Specifically, human education focuses upon creative planning moving like a pendulum between nature and freedom.

The present collection of papers focuses on the underpinnings of the creative workings of the human strategies of reason.

Brings to the fore the specific ability of the human achievement to be constantly prepared and adjusted through education The dynamically interactive human platform of existence calls for direction, proportion and balance from education The nature-transcending élan of the human person prompts the cultivation of spiritual aspirations (moral, aesthetic, intellective) Striving to orchestrate the creative planning of the forces of nature, social life, and personal accomplishments, the human being assumes the role of the custodian of life
