ISLAMICA Magazine Issue 18

January 3, 2007

Excerpt: The Education of the Heart: Liberating Our Capacity to See and Act

“We need to be aware of how education systems, secular or faith-based, can dehumanize us by devaluing those subjects that seek to understand the human condition in all its diversity and complexity. The marginalization of the humanities — of literature, history, archaeology, geography, and modern languages — will only ensure that ignorance of the richness of human heritage and diversity is compounded by incompetence in cross-cultural communication.”
