[Xmca-l] Re: About Vygotsky and Bar-Kokhba [Бар-Кохба (בר כוכבא‎)]. Bella or somebody can instruct me?

[Achilles Delari Junior]

Thank you very much Valerie.


I clearly remember that Vygotsky spokes about two lines of development in function of changes that play involves: (a) objetc/sense ---> sense/object => development of abstract thinking; (b) action/sense ---> sense/action => development of voluntary atc... There are many crucial things that demand voluntary acts in entire human life in private and public spheres, in the entire personality development, I guess... But I'm making the choice to return to stay quiet, high now. Excuse me once more. I'm really learning something with you and David... Believe me or not, is so frequent learn something, i.e. something really new, nowadays... Thank you. And best wishes.

And thank you Achilles, for a question rooted in the text.  In consideration of capitalism vs ? and Party? vs ? and being in "a patron"'s pocket versus standing for the little ones at all times, and everything we have talked about play and game here in this list, it seems that David's reference to a work that can be called "quite a statement" is worthy of discussion, framing, and debate, if that is called for, or at least response. Especially since we are also talking at the same time about a TED talk about play and the academic problems of framing problems.Vandy (Valerie)  -----Original Message-----From: xmca-l-bounces@mailman.ucsd.edu [mailto:xmca-l-bounces@mailman.ucsd.edu] On Behalf Of Jan AukesSent: Sunday, June 22, 2014 0:28To: eXtended Mind, Culture, ActivitySubject: [Xmca-l] Re: About Vygotsky and Bar-Kokhba [Бар-Кохба (בר כוכבא‎)].
