Between Languages: The Educational Value of "Interculturality"
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
What does “experience” mean? What does “education” mean? What does it mean to live “between” two (or more) languages, cultures, literary or artistic traditions? In which form do the experiences we live give us the possibility to learn and develop as human beings? The answers to these questions will be found through the narration of the most important personal experiences of the author. This reflection about the importance of being able to adopt the points of view of “others”, leads inevitably to one’s own personal development (beyond one’s own scientific research fields and beyond the made up theories concerning “interculturality” and “education”).
