Abstract
Resting on the belief that knowledge unfolds through dialogue this paper takes a dialogical approach to the exploration of worldviews. Understanding a worldview as a process of becoming rather than being, the paper engages with the thought of the Aboriginal teacher Jessie Wirrpa in relation to the work of the philosopher Emmanuel Levinas. In particular, the paper explores ideas of knowledge, caring and 'attentive intersubjectivity'.
