Abstract

Questo articolo si propone di analizzare come un concetto polisemico e soggettivo come il senso della vita possa essere affrontato in termini educativi. Per farlo, parte dalla concettualizzazione del termine, inquadrandolo sul piano esperienziale, comprendendo che questa esperienza si sviluppa sia internamente (rotazione) che esternamente (traduzione). Segue la presentazione di due approcci fondamentali sulla base dei quali sono state recentemente costruite proposte pedagogiche. Il primo si basa sull’approccio incentrato sull'identità narrativa, sia nel suo aspetto classico sia nella sua versione legata alla storia della vita. Il secondo si basa sullo sviluppo morale, principalmente attraverso l’uso dei dilemmi come risorsa didattica. Infine, l’articolo affronta l'inquadramento di queste considerazioni nell’orizzonte dell’attuale filosofia educativa, riflettendo sulla rilevanza delle stesse nel quadro particolare della sua pratica.
