Abstract | Asserts that with heroes, people confront crisis and terror; experiencing the extraordinary and expanding their notion of what it means to be human. Once central in schooling, the study of heroes helped students find the good to be imitated and the evil to be avoided. Suggests that while the notion of heroes has changed since then, the need for heroes has not, and students should be taught about them. (SM) |
