Cynical Critique And Its Transcendence In Modern Education

The word "cynics" is not common in current popular culture,and even in the domestic academic field,there are very few scholars engaged in this field.That is why the public does not know what cynicism means,but it does not prevent them from doing it.On the basis of literature analysis and observation,this article reveals the current state of cynicism in some public behaviors and thoughts,and makes a theoretical analysis and judgment on the external manifestations and internal causes of cynicism tendency in current educational practice and educational spirit.Although from the perspective of the author's personal cognitive inquiry logic,the perception of reality comes first,and the conceptualization and theoretical explanation comes later.But for the smoothness of the written expression and the comprehensibility of the content,the paper still adopts the usual concept-and-theory-first writing mode in terms of structure and layout.The content structure of the paper is as follows: Define the concept of "cynicism" and identify its spiritual core in different classical and modern times;explain the performance of modern cynicism in current public life and educational practice,and clarify the loss of the present educational spirit;explore a rationalization path that can correct the cynicism of education.Therefore,the thesis consists of an introduction and five chapters.The specific content of each part is as follows.Introduction: It clarifies the research background,research significance and research methods of the paper,and focuses on the analysis of relevant domestic and foreign research results by means of literature review.It is concluded that there is insufficient research on cynicism in the field of education at present,and insufficient attention and vigilance are given to the cynicization tendency of the educational practices and spirits of education participants.The first chapter:Explains and clarifies the fundamental question of "what is cynicism",and explains the respective spiritual characteristics of classical cynicism and modern cynicism.The conclusion is as follows: in the process of the alienation of classical cynicism into modern cynicism,the latter inherits the former's quirky external behavior,such as irony and banter,but abandons the former's most core attitude towards the truth and inner faith of the ideal.The second chapter: expounds several typical external manifestations of modern cynicism in Contemporary Chinese society,namely,unprincipled doubt and distrust,nihilism and relativism,playful expression of public discourse and extreme realism caused by the collapse of false idealism.The third chapter: To grasp the cynicism of education in practice and internal pursuit as a whole,that is to say,in education practice,there is a state of "thinking" with "energy without depth" and "depth without depth" The paradox of the "false" state of energy,and the exit of the ideal of teacher education and the barrenness of the individual spirit of the students reflect the collapse of the educational spirit and the decline of individual education.The fourth chapter: The deep-seated reasons for the cynicism of education are the alienation of educational ideals,the neutrality of the pursuit of educational value,and the unconscious state of the development of education itself.The fifth chapter: Correcting the cynicism in modern education can be done from three dimensions: remodeling the noble spirit of education,establishing a sense of tragedy in education,and cultivating individual public reason.
