Presenting a unique exploration of education at the edge of experience, this book investigates how unassimilable concepts can reconceptualize education in order to grapple with what is beyond understanding. Working at the intersection of curriculum theory, philosophy and psychoanalysis, Morris examines how each of these unassimilable concepts such as lament, disavowal, breathlessness, and the Kafkaesque point toward currere as the edge of experience. It addresses what Lee Braver calls the groundless grounds and what Avital Ronell calls the quicksand that is philosophy to approach slippage and breaking points through an interdisciplinary lens. Pointing to an understanding of our largely social ills and extending William F. Pinar's early work on currere in new and innovative directions, this book will appeal to curriculum theorists, education philosophers, psychoanalysts, and those with interests in the philosophy and theory of education.
