| Description | This study analyses two models of authority in the perspective of philosophy of education – one associated with the Herculean myth and its romantic re-reading, and the other with Latour’s interpretation of Gregor Samsa concerning teaching. The study analyses two models of authority and attempts to point out a particular crisis in the understanding of authority in the context of critical perceptions of modernity. |
