...idea of the greek #paideia to give humans the tools to unlock their potentials to become fully human in the spirit of humanism.
"One must incorporate the whole world to become fully human"
The prussian system made of Humboldts school a barrack and from this point on schools are more or less educational units were a system forms itself the necessary citizens.
But to unlock ones own potential, to manifest the spirit of ecoming fully human, that is lost in this place.
Solo i duri, solo i forti. A Sparta non c'era spazio per le debolezze: “l'educazione al coraggio e all'ardimento - frutto dell'addestramento dell'agoghê - erano una prassi che si trasmetteva di padre in figlio”.

The idea of #Paideia comes from the ancient #pagan #hellenic culture and aims to unfold the human potential to become #aristocratic in the original Greek meaning of becoming the very best of your self. The concept tries to gain #arete, often mistranslated as virtue but meaning rather "excellence", of the human potential. That means to embody the idea of a healthy, just, creative and good being to uphold the idea of human nature in the meaning the ancient #greek had.
