A Conversation about Pedagogy, Hermeneutics, and the Last Supper

Abstract

What follows in this paper is a hermeneutic inquiry into the question of how one writes hermeneutically. What began as an email discussion with David Jardine regarding the question of hermeneutic writing became an exploration that ranged over a great area of work—not only David’s own work in curriculum studies but the wide range of authors that have guided him and his reading of hermeneutics and how it focuses on topics/topographies, in other words, the territories or places that teaching and learning explore. An ecological reading, then, of curriculum and its study.
