L'affabulazione nella prospettiva di Maria Montessori

Author(s):  
Grazia Romanazzi

L'articolo mira ad analizzare alcuni fra i principi cardine del pensiero di Maria Montessori combinandoli creativamente con uno dei tracciati psicoanalitici delineati da Bruno Bettelheim ne Il mondo incantato (1976). Il confronto fra le due matrici teoriche - l'una declinata sul versante della crescita infantile e a misura di bambino, l'altra sul crinale del rapporto fra la realtà esperita dal bambino stesso e la sua realtà inconscia - fornisce un quadro prospettico e di analisi altamente funzionale all'educazione e alla cura della primissima infanzia. L'autrice, per questa via, disegna percorsi di umanazione dello sviluppo infantile lumeggiando la strada impervia, ma del tutto priva di biforcazioni, dell'incontro possibile e plausibile fra il montessoriano dato di realtà e l'irrinunciabile immaginazione infantile tematizzata dallo psicoanalista. Attraverso la pratica dell'affabulare, dove fantasia e realtà si fondono ma non per questo si confondono, l'autrice propone percorsi di sensibilizzazione precoce all'oggetto-libro (magico e, al contempo, reale) ad appannaggio di un'educazione che sappia porsi in ascolto di un'ulteriorità silenziosa, eppure presente.

One of the ways in which Jews and others have sought somehow to assimilate the knowledge of the Nazi Holocaust has been through the theatrical expression of the appalling dilemmas it posed. Implicitly or explicitly, however, the process of ‘shaping’ that this involves forces an attitude to be taken by the dramatist towards the meaning of ‘choice’ in such circumstances, and the ‘acceptable’ price of possible survival. In his anthology The Theatre of the Holocaust (1982), Robert Skloot assembled four plays which exemplified the possible ‘attitudes to survival’, and here he relates them to the ideas of Bruno Bettelheim, Terrence Des Pres, and other writers on the subject, in an attempt to assess how fully and honestly theatre is able to reflect the issues involved. Robert Skloot is Professor of Theatre and Drama at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and was Fulbright Lecturer in Israel in 1980–81. He has also edited a collection of essays, ‘The Darkness We Carry’: the Drama of the Holocaust, due for publication in the spring of 1988.

Abstract This paper lays out the moral theory of philosopher and educator Maria Montessori (1870–1952). Based on a moral epistemology wherein moral concepts are grounded in a well-cultivated moral sense, Montessori develops a threefold account of moral life. She starts with an account of character as an ideal of individual self-perfection through concentrated attention on effortful work. She shows how respect for others grows from and supplements individual character, and she further develops a notion of social solidarity that goes beyond cooperation toward shared agency. Partly because she attends to children's ethical lives, Montessori highlights how character, respect, and solidarity all appear first as prereflective, embodied orientations of agency. Full moral virtue takes up prereflective orientations reflectively and extends them through moral concepts. Overall, Montessori's ethic improves on features similar to some in Nietzschean, Kantian, Hegelian, or Aristotelian ethical theories while situating these within a developmental and perfectionist ethics.
