This essay explores J. Glenn Gray's neglected philosophy of education as an active search after a meaningful framework for grounding the practices of teachers. Influenced by Hegel, Heidegger, and Arendt, Gray's philosophy addresses the tensions between individuality and community, argues for a vision that honors wholeness and synthesis and embraces plurality and public action as one of the bases for a truly generous education. Gray contends that the love of beauty must also be an integral part of education that matters. The concluding part of this essay considers some of the implications of Gray's vision for practitioners.
