The Ph.D. Thesis consists, in addition to the Introduction, of two Parts and one Appendix. Part One deals with European Enlightenment as a spiritual movement and the dimensions that the idea of eudaimonia as an aim of education has taken in its context. Part Two deals with how Greek scholars of Modern Greek Enlightenment, and especially scholars within the ideological circle of Adamantios Korai, approached the idea of eudaimonia or “happiness on earth” as the object of education. The thesis explores the meaning of education specifically for Greeks as a means of happiness, as it is primarily understood as a means of spiritual and political liberation. Education can lead to prosperity and prosperity, which is conditionally based on freedom, both political and individual, should be pursued through an educational content of both moral philosophy, political philosophy, and a properly structured Christian education. Part One, which contains 4 chapters, presents the problem of European Enlightenment in relation to education, in order to establish the relevance of Modern Greek to European Enlightenment in relation to the interconnection of education and eudaimonia. Part Two, dealing with Modern Greek Enlightenment, examines how scholars belonging to the Korai ideological circle approach the relationship of happiness and education. Following is an Appendix presenting, briefly but for the first time, an 18th-century Greek manuscript dedicated to the collection of the Holy Archimandrite of Aigio, which saves a work entitled Practical Philosophy under the name of Antonios Moschopoulos (1718-1788). The work, among others, deals with issues of Ethical and Political Philosophy and addresses the issue of the relation of education and well-being. A precise table of comparison of the chapters between the Greek manuscript and the original Latin work written by Ludwig Philipp Thümmig (1697-1728), a student of Christian Wolff (1679-1754) is also given. In summary, the originality of the thesis lies in the following. (1) For the first time, an overall view is given of the concept of eudaimonia in the ethical and political texts of Modern Greek Enlightenment and its relation to education. (2) It is attempted to ascertain the equilibrium attempted in these Greek sources between “secular-earthy happiness” and “heaven bliss”. (3) It appears that the main source for the ethical and pedagogical ideas the Greek enlightenment scholars used, were the works of scholars representing the "moderate" stream of the European Enlightenment, which were translated or reproduced freely by modern Greek scholars.

tema central deste artigo são os processos de aprendizagem em situações educativas, discutidos a partir de reflexões e conceitos de uma pedagogia da libertação, campo teórico e metodológico entendido aqui em um sentido amplo, envolvendo idéias, e um olhar, que se baseia em Paulo Freire, mas também em outros autores, como John Dewey (que influenciou muito a Freire). O trabalho está dividido em duas partes. Na primeira, o objetivo é analisar inicialmente o próprio discurso e a própria racionalidade que tenta entender a construção do saber nas situações educativas fora da universidade, isto é, o pensar científico nas faculdades de educação. Em seguida, o artigo procura demonstrar como o conhecimento e mesmo o pensar ocorrem em experiências acionais, não se constituindo em fenômenos puramente intelectuais, soberanos e transcendentes à experiência social.

This paper examines the liberating philosophy of education in the perspective of Islamic education. The method used is descriptive-analytical with historical approach. This study found that liberation education philosophy became a mission in the world of Islamic education and has occurred in the time of the Prophet Muhammad until the golden age of Islam. However, after the decline of the Islamic world until now virtually a dichotomous virus has occurred, even liberation education philosophy no longer occurs in the world of Islamic education. Therefore, Islamic education should be able to be a means of liberation to prepare learners to plunge in people's lives. In addition, the dichotomy of science should be abolished by the view that science is all derived from Islam. Liberate education will be realized if Islamic education is willing to reorient: Having a clear vision, mission, and strategic orientation.

Popular education has played a central role in Pan-African liberation struggles historically and in the present moment. In the period following African independence, social movements that emerged around and through education in Africa were informed by and in dialogue with related decolonial movements of the Global South. However, the specific contributions of Pan-Africanist revolutionaries to the broader philosophy and praxis of education for liberation is often under-appreciated. This paper explores this impact through Paulo Freire’s political and intellectual engagement with Pan-Africanist popular education movements, radical intellectuals, and broader revolutionary struggles. In considering Freire’s work in dialogue and practice with African revolutionary thinkers, this paper shows that, while Freire shaped elements of liberation education in Africa, he was also deeply shaped and influenced by the historical conditions of the time and key African revolutionaries who were struggling towards similar objectives. Additionally, we explore the continued salience of Freirean educational praxis in contemporary Pan-Africanist social movements, through the example of a present day online pedagogical experiment, the Pan-African Activist Sunday School and Solidarity Collective.
