Il valore pedagogico della lettura: una ricerca esplorativa

The reading of a narrative text, interpreted in a pedagogical and psycho-pedagogical key, can represent the opening words for deepening themes and phenomena of great social alarm, as long as the literary world is updated and put into the various social contexts. A research conducted on a sample of students from a Calabrian Secondary School, passionate readers of a story on bullying, pursues precisely this goal: the literary page, re-read and revisited in the light of issues relating to marginality and deviance, becomes an effective pedagogical tool capable of speaking to young people, giving rise in them not only feelings of empathy and identification with the main charackters of the events proposed, but also critical and reflection skills.
