Inspired by the Commission on Religious Education 2018 report (CORE 2018), the <em>After RE<\/em> project seeks to reimagine Religious Education in schools for a context in which both religious and non-religious worldviews are taken seriously. One of the longstanding challenges for RE teachers in schools in England has been how to reconcile the broad range of aims and purposes it is supposed to support. Freighted with diverse and often competing aims, RE is in danger of being perceived as confused, inconsistent and consequently irrelevant. In these complex circumstances, could a singular purpose be defined to unite these diverse aims and interests, and does the concept of <em>Bildung<\/em> help in this regard? Through a discussion of the selected meanings and histories of the term, this paper considers whether <em>Bildung<\/em> could offer a way to rethink the educational purposes of RE. It explores how the varied and competing purposes of RE might be harmonized partly because this concept provides an educational direction without overspecification of the destination: it invites \u2018unbidden\u2019 aspects to enter educational processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Vestiges of Sublime Visuality: Colonial Pasts and Presence in Nature-Based Edutainment<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Annie Schultz, Flagler College<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That remnants of colonialism linger in our educational practices and interactions has been noted by many as a truism. A significant\u2014and sometimes underrecognized\u2014area of educational studies in which colonial practices linger are our human and nonhuman animal encounters in education. Of the embodied experiences with the nonhuman available to educational endeavors, venues such as zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens, and safaris \u2014 sometimes referred to as \u201cnature-based edutainment\u201d \u2014 are long-standing features of institutional education. This paper argues that a linear progression exists from the world\u2019s fairs and exhibitions of the late nineteenth century, which functioned to\u2014in Meg Armstrong\u2019s words\u2014\u201csublime the exotic\u201d to present-day nature-based edutainment venues. In the world\u2019s fair exhibitions of the late nineteenth century, global imperialist pursuits were put on display for spectators to glimpse the artifacts, nonhuman animals, and even human beings from exotic, far-off lands as a show of the human (re European male) dominance over nature, so fundamental to Enlightenment era philosophy. In ways that echo these imperialist sentiments, present-day nature-based edutainment venues position nonhuman animals as objects of a sublime exoticized gaze under the guise of education and conservation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I first engage some common social and ethical criticisms of zoological venues. I then discuss the imperialist aims of the nineteenth century world\u2019s fairs, tracing the parallels to present-day nature-based edutainment. I then take up Meg Armstrong\u2019s notion of subliming the exotic, rooting the concept in Immanuel Kant\u2019s theory of the sublime. Finally, I defend against some potential criticisms of making connections between the treatment of nonhuman animals resulting from colonialist frameworks and the treatment of human people.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Does Bildung offer a singular purpose for Religion\/Worldviews Education?
