ABSTRACT

My work as a curriculum theorist has taken a turn toward what Harold Bloom (1996) called “spiritual autobiography” (p. 13). I am, however, not doing “spirituality” and I am not doing “autobiography.” In Understanding Curriculum (1995), William Pinar, William Reynolds, Patrick Slattery, and Peter Taubman suggested that curriculum scholars may understand their work as “theological text.” That is not exactly what I am doing. Pinar et al. (1995) also suggested that curriculum workers might understand curriculum studies as “autobiographical text.” That is not exactly what I am doing either. I find myself undone, without a home of self. Am I (un)home in education?
