L’articolo si interroga sul significato della dimensione estetica all’interno della formazione umana al fine di proporre un’interpretazione che oltrepassi il riduzionismo utilitaristico e tecnico-scientifico prevalente nei modelli formativi contemporanei. Attingendo ad una “pedagogia del bello” che si propone di perseguire la piena umanizzazione della persona, il contributo rintraccia le implicazioni tra persona e dimensione estetica ricorrendo al parallelismo tra opera d’arte e opera educativa.

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.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
