Description

‘Vygotsky & Bernstein in the Light of Jewish Tradition’ analyses the role that Jewish cultural tradition played in the work of the Russian psychologist Lev S. Vygotsky and the British sociologist Basil Bernstein by highlighting aspects of their respective lives and theories, revealing significant influences of Jewish thoughts and beliefs. Although they lived and worked in different countries and different times, the letter which Bernstein wrote to Vygotsky’s widows in 1964 after reading “Language and Thought” published in English, witnesses that these two authors were somehow linked by a strong mental affinity.The authors demonstrate that theories and human life are dialectically interconnected: what research can reveal about a man can also provide a better understanding of his theory.
