Description: The history of education could be interpret as a continuous attempt to perfect the child. The basic idea of this approach is the imaginery plan of the possibilities of education and likewise an originally good nature which, could return in his initial condition with the help of human being. This anthropological approach is the beginn of the modern education. It developed with the pedagogic vision of Comenius in the begin of the new epoch. But the intense discourse and the uncertainty which dominated the human sciences since the traditional paradigms lost their validity, manifest as well the deadend in the Educational Sciences as a closed norm system of knowledge. Today, it is more then obvious that the expectations of the Enlightenment concerning the continuing progress, the technological development and the perfection of human being remained unfinished. The result of this 'unfinished' project which declared the end of mythologies was the production of new myths, such as the perfection of human being through the power of education.
