Abstract

DALBOSCO, Claudio A.. Educação e formas de conhecimento: do inatismo antigo (Platão) e da educação natural moderna (Rousseau). Educação. Porto Alegre [online]. 2012, vol.35, n.02, pp.268-276. ISSN 1981-2582.

The article deals with the relationship and shapes of knowledge. It seeks to clarify in which sense a certain epistemological notion of education may influence decisively in the relationship between educator and educatee, more precisely, in the way that the educatee learns. It analyzes, as an illustration case, the ancient innatist mode, which has its biggest reference in Plato’s Meno and, modernly, the model of natural education, developed by Jean Jacques Rousseau in Émile. It defends the thesis that natural education, when grounding itself on the experience and the senses of the child and on education by means of things, represents a consistent objection to the classical innatist model.

Keywords : Education; Knowledge; Innatism; Natural Education; Child; Learning.
