Produktbeschreibung
Charles Fowler here argues that studying the arts is an important and valuable component of general education and of society and American culture. Directed toward a broad public audience with the intent of providing parents and other interested citizens with a thorough background about arts education, the author presents a number of different rationales to support the necessity of the arts in general education. Fowler confronts complicated matters of curriculum such as - who should study the arts? which arts and whose culture should be taught? - and discusses the varying philosophies amongst arts advocates and educators themselves.
In this passionate, eloquent book, the late Charles Fowler argues that, far from a luxury, the arts are a vitally important part of our society and our schools. In 18 compelling essays, Fowler demonstrates the importance of the arts in our culture and the necessity of rescuing the arts for our future.
