dc.description.abstract | This work of life writing seeks to question the overpowering myths of progress, competition and domination that continue to story the educational landscape. In exploring the possibilities of metaphor as a possible response to these dominant myths, this collection of narrative and poetic pieces dwells within the relational truths of metaphor and poetic language that are often hidden in the dominant expository language of academia. In the context of Heidegger’s (1977) notion of “language [as] the house of Being” (p. 217), the principles of hermeneutics, Indigenous knowledges and ecological pedagogy come together to explore some of the possibilities for metaphorical modes of Being. This work delves into the ways in which the work of life writing might break down the language of isolation and invite teachers and students into scholarly conversations of kinship —with our cultural and educational traditions, our histories, our topics of study, the more-than-human world, and each other. | en_US |
