- 2. MEANING • The term"philosophy" means, "love of wisdom." In a broad sense, philosophy is an activity people undertake when they seek to understand fundamental truths about themselves, the world in which they live, and their relationships to the world and to each other. As an academic discipline philosophy is much the same. Those who study philosophy are perpetually engaged in asking, answering, and arguing for their answers to life’s most basic questions. • https://philosophy.fsu.edu/undergraduate-study/why- philosophy/What-is-Philosophy
- 3. MEANING • Philosophy (fromGreek: φιλοσοφία, philosophia, 'love of wisdom‘)is the processing of general and fundamental questions, such as those about existence, reason, knowledge, values, mind, and language. Some sources claim the term was coined by Pythagoras (c. 570 – c. 495 BCE), although this theory is disputed by some. Philosophical methods include questioning, critical discussion, rational argument and systematic presentation. • Historically, philosophy encompassed all bodies of knowledge and a practitioner was known as a philosopher. "Natural philosophy," which began as a discipline in ancient India and Ancient Greece, encompasses astronomy, medicine, and physics. For example, Isaac Newton's 1687 Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy later became classified as a book of physics.
- 4. Con… • In the19th century, the growth of modern research universities led academic philosophy and other disciplines to professionalize and specialize. Since then, various areas of investigation that were traditionally part of philosophy have become separate academic disciplines, and namely the social sciences such as psychology, sociology, linguistics, and economics. • Today, major subfields of academic philosophy include metaphysics, which is concerned with the fundamental nature of existence and reality; epistemology, which studies the nature of knowledge and belief; ethics, which is concerned with moral value; and logic, which studies the rules of inference that allow one to derive conclusions from true premises. Other notable subfields include philosophy of religion, philosophy of science, political philosophy, aesthetics, philosophy of language, and philosophy of mind.

- 17. Relationship Between PhilosophyAnd Education • 1. Both Education and Philosophy are dynamic: This means that both are not static and are always changing. Education on one hand develops a person according to the changing conditions and it impacts knowledge tailored towards the changing needs of the society. Philosophy on the same hand deals with ideas, ever changing opinions of philosophers, the varying philosophical views and a dialectical(logical discussion) process of analyzing the various Philosophical ideas.

Educationis the dynamic side of Philosophy: This means that Education is the practical side of Philosophy as every Philosophical thoughts is put into practice by education and these findings of knowledge, belief and wisdom by Philosophers are transmitted to younger generations through education. 3. Philosophers are Educationists as both Philosophy and Education are two sides of the same coin which is based on Wisdom, Ideology and Critical enquiry. Thus, people who are Philosophers naturally becomes an Educationist.
