Living the Sense of Subjectivity: Martin Buber’s Philosophy of Dialogue and Its Enlightenment to Education
Abstract
This paper attempts to reveal Buber’s understanding of education through the interpretation of his dialogue philosophy. In order to understand Buber’s educational philosophy, we need to examine it in the context of a meeting of “I and Thou”. Through analysis, Buber’s concept, the process of education is a “dialogue” between teachers and students, which allows students to participate with a sense of subject, and helps students to meet “Thou” and step into the “I-Thou” relationship. At this time, no matter how serious knowledge is, it will not be boring. Through discussion, the author shows that the sense of subject in Buber’s philosophy will lead Thou into the reciprocal and independent “I-Thou” relationship, and the “meeting” between teachers and students is regarded as the manifestation of the true teacher-student relationship.References
