Abstract

Nei progetti intergenerazionali, l’apprendimento di un lavoro artigianale è un’attività che può interessare persone di età diverse. Questo articolo si concentra sul lavoro a maglia come attività artigianale. Nella maggior parte delle società occidentali, il lavoro a maglia è spesso considerato un mestiere da donne, ma sull’isola di Taquile, in Perù, sono gli uomini a lavorare a maglia. Questo articolo affronta il lavoro a maglia da una prospettiva intergenerazionale, concentrandosi sul genere e sulla cultura in un caso di studio autentico. A questo scopo, introduciamo un caso di studio per esaminare il ruolo del genere e della cultura nell’apprendimento intergenerazionale. I dati utilizzati in questo studio sono stati raccolti durante una visita all’isola di Taquile. In sintesi, i risultati dello studio rivelano che (i) a Taquile, i membri della comunità investono nel mantenimento delle tradizioni culturali in opposizione all’essere trascinati dai (con)temporanei cambiamenti sociali; (ii) il lavoro a maglia a Taquile è affrontato come una tecnica pratica, in contrasto con la cultura occidentale in cui il lavoro a maglia è collegato al concetto di ‘benessere’; e (iii) mentre le strutture di genere possono definire le cornici per le prestazioni, il caso di Taquile dimostra che ciò che è tipicamente considerato ‘maschile’ o ‘femminile’ può variare.
