This book uses words, images, and materiality as linking the processes of imaginative wondering/naming/knowing, as a reminder of Bergers educational/pedagogical skill in carrying and transporting meaning. Bergers metaphor of the writer as a shuttle, moving back and forth between the dispossessed and the reader, conjures up writing and reading as multi-directional, weaving narrative, invention, and so on. This exploration of Bergers contribution to educational thinking is also woven with contemporary feminist post humanist theories and cultural education, and also draws on arts-based research practices.
Bergers method of consciously weaving the organic, technical, visual, textual, mythic, economic, and political could be viewed as a precursor methodology to post humanisms expansion of human and more-than-human learning. In line with this, this book weaves in visual works made by the author, suggestive of Bergers own practice with photography and drawings.
