SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Maulana Jalaluddin Muhammad al Balkhi, more commonly known in the West as "Rumi," though often considered as a poet, mystic, and, religious figure, is rarely discussed with an eye towards his title, "our teacher." This provides an opportunity to examine Rumi's approach to education. One of the best frameworks to understand philosophies of education is to consider Rumi as a virtue ethicist, a school of philosophy that flourished in ancient Greece that was primarily concerned with the cultivation of character and morals. Virtue ethicists, such as Socrates and Aristotle, address the following questions in their texts: What does it mean to be educated, or to possess "virtue"? Can "virtue" be transmitted to someone, and if so, what are the social and psychological dynamics of this educational process? To show how Rumi responds to such questions, I will first give a brief overview of contemporary discussions on virtue ethics. Then, I will give two common examples of ancient Greek virtue ethicists, Socrates and Aristotle, and show how the aims and methods of virtue ethicists vary. I will then introduce Rumi's Masnavi, showing that Rumi's philosophy of education has much in common with Socratic virtue ethics. Finally, I will give an example from the Masnavi itself, showing the nuances of Rumi's philosophy of education.
