Странность этого маршрута была не в его обыденности… А в том, что за время его проведения дважды за сезон мне «повезло» сбиться с курса. К этому времени у меня был уже большой стаж работы в разных регионах Заполярной Якутии – и в Забайкалье, и на Колыме, и в Верхоянье, и на Сибирской платформе. И не только в пеших маршрутах, но и на вездеходах ГАЗ-47 и 71, и даже наш первый ГТТ перегнать из поселка Жиганск на реке Лене на реку Оленек, где была наша полевая подбаза (а это 1000 км), довелось мне.

This eBook edition of «The Critique of Pure Reason» has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. The Critique of Pure Reason is one of the most influential works in the history of philosophy and marks a turning point and the beginning of modern philosophy. Also referred to as Kant's «first critique,» it was followed by the Critique of Practical Reason and by the Critique of Judgment. In the preface to the first edition, Kant explains what he means by a critique of pure reason: «I do not mean by this a critique of books and systems, but of the faculty of reason in general, in respect of all knowledge after which it may strive independently of all experience.» Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) was a German philosopher, who, according to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy is «the central figure of modern philosophy.» Kant argued that fundamental concepts of the human mind structure human experience, that reason is the source of morality, that aesthetics arises from a faculty of disinterested judgment, that space and time are forms of our understanding, and that the world as it is «in-itself» is unknowable. Kant took himself to have effected a Copernican revolution in philosophy, akin to Copernicus' reversal of the age-old belief that the sun revolved around the earth.

In Beyond Good and Evil, Nietzsche accuses past philosophers of lacking critical sense and blindly accepting dogmatic premises in their consideration of morality. Specifically, he accuses them of founding grand metaphysical systems upon the faith that the good man is the opposite of the evil man, rather than just a different expression of the same basic impulses that find more direct expression in the evil man. The work moves into the realm «beyond good and evil» in the sense of leaving behind the traditional morality which Nietzsche subjects to a destructive critique in favor of what he regards as an affirmative approach that fearlessly confronts the perspective nature of knowledge and the perilous condition of the modern individual. Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, poet, and Latin and Greek scholar whose work has exerted a profound influence on Western philosophy and modern intellectual history. Before turning to philosophy, he began his career as a philologist and worked at the Department of Classical Philology at the University of Basel, but he had to retire due to health problems. Nietzsche's body of writing spanned philosophical polemics, poetry, cultural criticism and fiction, and drew widely on art, philology, history, religion and science. His writing displayed a fondness for aphorism and irony, while engaging with a wide range of subjects including morality, aesthetics, tragedy, epistemology, atheism, and consciousness.

La educación está en movimiento. Los estudiantes cada vez nos señalan con más claridad que aprenden de maneras distintas y muchos docentes están dispuestos a acompañarlos enseñando de manera diferente. La pregunta no es si la escuela está en transformación o no, sino más bien hacia dónde avanza. Para ello es necesaria la utopía, que es esperanza y deseo; se ofrece al caminante como aliciente para dar un paso más, un nuevo paso. En sanidad se habla desde hace tiempo de activos de salud en la búsqueda de unas condiciones que promuevan la salud y eviten la enfermedad. Mediante estos activos, la comunidad y el individuo generan y participan en situaciones que les proporcionan bienestar. De la misma manera, contamos con activos de aprendizaje que promueven, estimulan y permiten un desarrollo integral equilibrado del individuo y de la comunidad. Somos organismos que aprenden y nuestro entorno es una fuente constante de aprendizajes. Por eso los textos que aquí se ofrecen contienen fragmentos de un mapa de esos activos de aprendizaje que aún está por explorar; son breves fotografías que miran al presente como futuro. En nuestras manos está determinar no solo cuál es nuestra utopía sino también cómo queremos hacer el camino.
