From history emerges or manifests four substantive meanings or significations of curriculum:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A carriage, chariot, conveyance, or vehicle and attendant parts, arenas, circuses, crowds, and infrastructure (e.g., <em>curriculum artis <\/em>and<br><em>currus igneus<\/em>).<\/li><li>The run or race, autobiography, career and works, experience, journey,<br>or life (<em>curriculum vitae <\/em>and <em>currere<\/em>).<\/li><li>The sphere or extension of the mind (<em>curriculum mentis<\/em>).<\/li><li>A course of study (e.g., <em>cursus studiorum<\/em>).<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Curriculum, obtained as a loanword, had not passed into English language common use until the 1830s (e.g., Buchanan, 1846, p. 258). Interdependencies among the four manifestations evolve while articulations give depth or obscure meanings and understandings over time. Since the early 1900s with progressive education\u2019s focus on students\u2019 experiences and the course of studies, and the reappearance in the 1970s with reconceptualization and postreconceptualization\u2019s focus on currere and autobiography (Pinar, 1975), the second and fourth meanings have been dominant in curriculum studies. With the history and metaphysics of curriculum neglected or atrophied, we have little to no understanding of the balance of manifestations (Doll, 2002; Quinn &amp; Davis, 2002). Consequently, there is a misunderstanding of curriculum. As an object of analysis, the first manifestation is debased to what the idealist Royce (1908\/1951) called \u201ctrivialities of mere instrumentalism\u201d\u2026 \u201cfragmentary hints and transient expressions\u201d of the second and fourth senses of curriculum (p. 96). The third manifestation is neglected altogether. It does not help that a cosmic or social extension of consciousness and mind risks charges of \u201cmere metaphysical verbiage\u201d (Bawden, 1904, p. 66).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bawden, H.
