Informalità. Insegnamenti di Meneghello

This article focuses on the relationship between literature and education in Meneghello’s work, particularly in I piccoli maestri, Fiori italiani, and Jura. It could even be said that Meneghello is always writing about school and education, sometimes explicitly, and at other times implicitly. He has always been a proponent of informal education. But how should teachers teach Meneghello as an author in secondary schools? Perhaps the best approach is not to treat his books as objects of study to be discussed with students, but, rather, to read his works as educators and try to learn from them an informal educational attitude to then implement in the classroom.
