Holy Sparks

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores the decline of the American school system at the end of the twentieth century, comparing it to the broken vessels of the Old Testament. Wexler identifies 'holy sparks' of divine inspiration within this decline, suggesting that a spiritual reawakening is present in late twentieth-century culture. He argues that recognizing and nurturing these sparks in children and schools is essential for revitalizing education and securing a better future. The work draws on cultural criticism, social theory, and religious tradition to support its themes.
