Abstract

Might there be education-in-wisdom? Firstly we need to identify and characterise what this ‘wisdom’ would be. Towards this end comparisons and contrasts are attempted here between this wisdom, on the one hand, and intelligence, cleverness, knowledge, common sense, and trivial wisdom on the other. An Aristotelian account of wisdom emerges; and we touch on what education-in-wisdom might involve, and the challenges it faces and poses over against a subjectivism about values.
