In search of the multiple roots of non-religious ethic
during the Third Republic
by Laurence Loeffel
When I was enrolled for the preparation of a thesis in
educational sciences at the end of the year 1991, 1 had
to face several difficulties to realize my project.
Living in Paris, and being a full time teacher of philo¬
sophy at the IUFM (Teacher Training Institute) in
Beauvais, I had little time to conduct research. This
research concerned an ignored field of knowledge :
the foundation of non-religious ethic during the
Third Republic. Many historians explored, long ago,
the theme of secularization, especially secular control
of school, but the issue of philosophical foundations
of secular ethic at school was neglected by scholars.
It's why I conducted this survey on the borders ol
philosophy, history and archeology. I coud achieve
this project thanks to my supervisor, Pr. Lelièvre,
who was always ready to help me during the five
years of research leading to my Ph D.
Factors determining educational readings of
teachers
by Jean-Michel Drouet
Teachers have been accused of "educational illite
SUMMARIES
racy", though an active minority of them read inten¬
sely. Trying to go beyond these statements, this
article takes into account actual educational practi¬
ces and presents the most relevant results of an
inquiry on teachers reading in education. Based on
the assumption that belonging to a network would
be the strongest factor determining reading practi¬
ces, it shows that these practices significantly differ
according to the type of network concerned. They
also seem to vary in relation to some of individual
teacher characteristics more than in relation to his
representations and projects.
Memories for the Future
by Jean-François Garcia
a new column, written under the heading "Memories
for the future", aiming at enhancing the richness of
the entire collections of INRP library and resource
center, is in this issue, giving a commentary on an
excerpt from the Buisson Dictionary published in
191 1, which introduces a nineteeth century educatio¬
nalist - Joseph Jocotot, who is not well-known - and
his educational philosophy contained in the famous
axiom "all is in all".
