Abstract

* The original article "Basi antropologiche della pedagogia di don Lugi Giussani" was published in Roczniki Pedagogiczne, vol. 15, no. 1 (2023), pp. 51-61.

In Luigi Giussani’s cultural path, the pedagogical and anthropological dimensions appear intimately connected: the questioning of the principles and forms of human education is closely related to that of the constitutive and structural dimensions of the person.

Human experience appears to Giussani to be characterized by the perception of an original dependence and by the presence of an inexhaustible need for meaning: from this awareness the work of education must begin, as the offering of a relationship capable of introducing the subject to the discovery of his own self and of the fundamental dimensions of the world.

Based on this approach, Giussani formulates an educational thought that addresses the main pedagogical issues of the contemporary era, rethinking them in an original way: growth of the person, relationship between authority and freedom, experience, knowledge, complexity, nihilism.

Keywords:

pedagogical anthropology, desire, experience, relationship, meaning
