| Abstract: | A bstract . In this essay, Jim Garrison explores the emerging scholarship establishing a Hegelian continuity in John Dewey's thought from his earliest publications to the work published in the last decade of his life. The primary goals of this study are, first, to introduce this new scholarship to philosophers of education and, second, to extend this analysis to new domains, including Dewey's theory of inquiry, universals, and creative action. Ultimately, Garrison's analysis also refutes the traditional account that claims that William James converted Dewey from Hegelian idealism, after which Charles Sanders Peirce inspired him to rebuild his instrumentalism along radically different lines. |
