Bringing together educational philosophy, political thought, and rhetoric, this book examines the influence of the philosopher Isocrates on educational thought and the history of education. Tracing the historical influence of Isocrates' notions of education from Antiquity to the modern era, Muir questions normative assumptions about the foundations of education and considers the future status of education as an academic discipline.
