Jean-Luc Nancy claims that the establishing of working definitions of rights, exemptions, and moral values in respect of freedom has tended to divert attention from any direct questioning of freedom itself. But what is it to question freedom without bringing in those ideas that ally freedom with education? To broach this point, this paper analyses the received discourse within philosophy concerning the idea of freedom, specifically its differentiation between negative and positive freedoms, considered as freedom of something: a genitive condition of human being. In reading of Martin Heidegger, I attempt to take a stance on the idea of freedom as a phenomenon that in education appears "as' something. In order to illustrate and explore the phenomenon of freedom in education, finally, this paper addresses the five themes of freedom as possibility, as movement, as a leap, as language, and as thinking.
