💚 Wilhelm von Humboldt / Friedrich Wilhelm Christian Karl Ferdinand von Humboldt #Humboldt

@ TELEGRAM: “OWING TO THE VIGOROUS AND ELASTIC STRENGTH OF MAN’S ORIGINAL POWER, NECESSITY DOES NOT OFTEN REQUIRE ANYTHING SAVE THE REMOVAL OF OPPRESSIVE BONDS.“ WILHELM VON HUMBOLDT FRIEDRICH WILHELM CHRISTIAN KARL FERDINAND VON HUMBOLDT WAS A PRUSSIAN PHILOSOPHER, LINGUIST, GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONARY, DIPLOMAT, AND FOUNDER OF THE HUMBOLDT UNIVERSITY OF BERLIN, WHICH WAS NAMED AFTER HIM IN 1949. HE IS ESPECIALLY REMEMBERED AS A LINGUIST WHO MADE IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PHILOSOPHY OF LANGUAGE, ETHNOLINGUISTICS AND TO THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF EDUCATION. HE MADE A MAJOR CONTRIBUTION TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF LIBERALISM BY ENVISIONING EDUCATION AS A MEANS OF REALIZING INDIVIDUAL POSSIBILITY RATHER THAN A WAY OF DRILLING TRADITIONAL IDEAS INTO YOUTH TO SUIT THEM FOR AN ALREADY ESTABLISHED OCCUPATION OR SOCIAL ROLE. IN PARTICULAR, HE WAS THE ARCHITECT OF THE HUMBOLDTIAN EDUCATION IDEAL, WHICH WAS USED FROM THE BEGINNING IN PRUSSIA AS A MODEL FOR ITS SYSTEM OF PUBLIC EDUCATION, AS WELL AS IN THE UNITED STATES AND JAPAN. HE WAS ELECTED AS A MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY IN 1822. #humboldt #historyandphilosophy #linguistics #education #wilhelmhumboldt #philosophy #thelimitsofstateaction #innabesedina #philosophyoflanguage #wilhelmvonhumboldt #westernphilosophy #germanphilosophy #berlinromanticism #romanticlinguistics #classicalliberalism #liberalism #philosophyofeducation #studying #philosophical #philosophicalthoughts #educational #educationalvideo #interestingthoughts #interestingvideo #selfdevelopment #selfgrowth #selfimprovement ALL IMAGES IN THIS VIDEO ARE IMAGES IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
