School Told to my Dog
What can a teacher who loves her job still do? What are the prospects of a profession that can no longer even recognise itself? A tale-reflection, bitter and amused, on the new Italian school, its follies and its seemingly unstoppable decline. Amidst anecdotes, curiosities and jarring comic effects, the portrait of a profession that really ‘no longer exists’, because it has been strangled and torn to shreds by senseless ‘watchwords’, caged in a labyrinth of ‘projects’, ‘educational strategies’ and ‘recoveries’, leaving its protagonists, teachers but also students, bewildered and disappointed, perhaps even nostalgic for a world in which the words ‘teaching’ and ‘studying’ meant nothing but themselves.
