Asleep in my Sunshine Chair is a collection of essays by noted Canadian scholar David W. Jardine. It includes philosophical, practical and poetic reflections on the nature of interpretive work and its especial importance to matters of education and study, in and out of schools. It blends scholarly considerations of Buddhist, ecological and hermeneutic sources with classroom examples, and reflections on how to maintain ourselves in these ecologically desperate times of distraction, affliction, and the manipulation and deliberate exhaustion of considered, careful attention to our lived circumstances. A good sourcebook for courses on interpretive research, philosophy of education and the exigencies of schooling.
