Aesthetic implications of education as work of art of themselves

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This paper faces the relevance of aesthetic dimension within the human education, in order to propose an interpretation that oversteps the prevalent utilitarian and technical-scientific reductionism in the contemporary educational models. Drawing from a “pedagogy of the beauty”, that intends to pursue the full humanization of the person, this paper tracks the implications between the person and the aesthetic dimension, appealing to a parallelism between work of art and educational work.
