On the education of girls: the case of Bulega and Bushi... (R.d.Congo)

Meer over het boek

This study critiques contemporary education and societal norms through a provocative exchange between a Belgian professor and a local shopkeeper in Smyrna. The professor's seemingly complimentary observation about modern girls quickly shifts to a critique, highlighting a perceived decline in virtues compared to previous generations. The discussion reveals concerns about superficiality, imitation, and a lack of depth in the behavior and education of today's youth, suggesting that the admiration for current trends masks deeper issues of mediocrity and cultural loss.
