Neil Postman Quotes
Ll Subjects Are Forms Of Discourse And That, Therefore, Almost All Education Is A Form Of Language Education. Knowledge Of A Subject Mostly Means Knowledge Of The Language Of That Subject. Biology, After All, Is Not Plants And Animals; It Is A Special Language Employed To Speak About Plants And Animals. History Is Not Events That Once Occurred; It Is A Language Describing And Interpreting Events, According To Rules Established By Historians. Astronomy Is Not Planets And Stars But A Special Way Of Talking About Planets And Stars, Quite Different From The Language Poets Use To Talk About Them.
