These thought experiments are conducted through a series of “and if” questions around education and schooling. Findings: The article proposes to radically reimagine education in two ways. First, it invites readers to reconfigure education as a “connective tissue” between different worlds, bringing together rather than hierarchizing them. Second, it proposes to reframe education as an opportunity to learn how to anticipate and animate our ongoing entanglement with more-thanhuman worlds.  \nOriginality/Value: Using the concept of “metamorphosis” as an antidote to Western metaphysics, the article re-situates education within a wider set of possibilities in relation to the takenfor-granted ways of knowing and being, as well as the notions of space and time.  \nCorresponding author:  \nIveta Silova, Center for Advanced Studies in Global Education, Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, Arizona State University, PO Box 871611, Tempe, AZ 85287, USA.  \nEmail: [iveta.silova@asu.edu](iveta.silova@asu.edu)  \nCreative Commons Non Commercial CC BY-NC: This article is distributed under the terms of the Creative  \nCommons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 License ([https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/)) which permits non-commercial use, reproduction and distribution of the work without further permission provided the original work is attributed as specified on the SAGE and Open Access pages ([https://us.sagepub.com/en-us/nam/open-access-at-sage](https://us.sagepub.com/en-us/nam/open-access-at-sage)).  \nKeywords  \nBorder thinking, comparative education, more-than-human worlds, pluriverse, SF  \nDate received: 1 August 2019; accepted: 1 November 2019  \n“Once upon a time, I, Zhuangzi, dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was Zhuangzi. Soon I awakened, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man. Between a man and a butterfly there is necessarily a distinction. The transition is called the transformation of material things.”(Zhuangzi, translated by Moss Roberts, 1979)  \n***  \nThis translation of Zhuangzi’s dream appears in a book of Chinese Fairy Tales and Fantasies, published in the U.S. in 1979 . Like many other dreams, it is presented to the Western audience as nothing more than a magic fairy tale or a pure fantasy. Yet, it is undoubtedly much more than that. Written by a preeminent Chinese philosopher around the 3rd-century BC, the “Butterfly Dream”blurs the distinctions between dreaming and waking, illusion and reality, confusion and clarity, raising important existential questions: What is the nature of reality? Are we the dreamers, or are we being dreamed? Furthermore, it fundamentally challenges modernity’s other stark dualisms that separate self and other, space a","cbCaiskEV9XYxfeg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiskEV9XYxfeg","pdf",362600,22,"English","en",105,"# Abstract\n## Purpose\n## Design/Approach/Methods\n## Findings\n## Originality/Value\n# Keywords\n# Main Discussion","[{\"question\":\"What is the article’s main purpose regarding education and the self?\",\"answer\":\"The article aims to reimagine education—and our selves—within multiple, more-than-human worlds where everything and everyone are interrelated.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the article develop its argument?\",\"answer\":\"It uses two speculative thought experiments, connecting seemingly unrelated knowledge systems (European “paganism” and 13th-century Japanese Buddhism) and drawing on indigenous, ecofeminist, and decolonial scholarship through a series of “and if” questions.\"},{\"question\":\"What changes does the article propose for how education should be understood?\",\"answer\":\"It proposes reconfiguring education as connective tissue between worlds and reframing it as learning to anticipate and animate ongoing entanglement with more-than-human worlds.\"}]","Anticipating Other Worlds, Animating Our Selves - An Invitation to Comparative Education | PDF",1792091944,55,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":83},"ok",{"site_id":75,"language":74,"slug":84,"title":65,"keywords":85,"description":66,"schema_data":86,"social_meta":140,"head_meta":142,"extra_data":144,"updated_unix":145},"anticipating-other-worlds-animating-our-selves-an-invitation-to-comparative-education","",{"@graph":87,"@context":139},[88,102,122],{"@type":89,"itemListElement":90},"BreadcrumbList",[91,95,97,100],{"item":92,"name":93,"@type":94,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":96,"name":9,"@type":94,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":98,"name":40,"@type":94,"position":99},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":101,"name":65,"@type":94,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/anticipating-other-worlds-animating-our-selves-an-invitation-to-comparative-education/601080/",{"url":101,"name":65,"@type":103,"image":104,"author":109,"headline":65,"publisher":111,"fileFormat":114,"inLanguage":74,"description":66,"dateModified":115,"datePublished":116,"encodingFormat":114,"isAccessibleForFree":117,"interactionStatistic":118},"DigitalDocument",{"url":105,"@type":106,"width":107,"height":108},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/anticipating-other-worlds-animating-our-selves-an-invitation-to-comparative-education/601080.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":63,"@type":110},"Person",{"url":92,"name":112,"@type":113},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-30","2026-10-15",true,{"@type":119,"interactionType":120,"userInteractionCount":39},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":121},"ViewAction",{"@type":123,"mainEntity":124},"FAQPage",[125,131,135],{"name":126,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":128},"What is the article’s main purpose regarding education and the self?","Question",{"text":129,"@type":130},"The article aims to reimagine education—and our selves—within multiple, more-than-human worlds where everything and everyone are interrelated.","Answer",{"name":132,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":133},"How does the article develop its argument?",{"text":134,"@type":130},"It uses two speculative thought experiments, connecting seemingly unrelated knowledge systems (European “paganism” and 13th-century Japanese Buddhism) and drawing on indigenous, ecofeminist, and decolonial scholarship through a series of “and if” questions.",{"name":136,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":137},"What changes does the article propose for how education should be understood?",{"text":138,"@type":130},"It proposes reconfiguring education as connective tissue between worlds and reframing it as learning to anticipate and animate ongoing entanglement with more-than-human worlds.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":101,"og:type":141,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":112,"og:description":66},"article",{"robots":143,"canonical":101},"index,follow",{"doc_id":61,"site_id":75},1792167724]
