Il concetto di “performatività” è oggetto peculiare di indagine da almeno sessant’anni ed è stato osservato da punti di vista afferenti a molteplici ambiti di ricerca: linguistico, filosofico, etno-antropologico, sociologico, psicologico e pedagogico, sino a quello delle scienze politiche ed economiche. Nella cronologia delle ricerche sulla performatività, che dalla fine degli anni ’50 del Novecento ad oggi ha suscitato l’interesse di eminenti pensatori e di buona parte del mondo accademico – in particolare di quello statunitense e anglosassone – è possibile individuare un fil rouge che interconnette i diversi campi di indagine e li pone in dialogo sul “problema performativo”, dando alla tematica una connotazione interdisciplinare sia formativa, che culturale e territoriale. Muovendo da tali premesse, la trattazione della presente tesi intende, innanzitutto, recuperare il significato educativo, culturale e comunicativo della performance; in secondo luogo, attualizzare il “problema performativo” all’interno delle attività educative e didattiche curricolari della scuola primaria; non ultimo, concentrarsi su alcune possibili declinazioni dell’espressione artistica quale strumento per l’elaborazione di percorsi pedagogici che consentano di “transitare” da una concezione performante ed eterodiretta dell’agire personale a una concezione tras-formativa, e dunque, pedagogicamente orientata, dell’agire medesimo, in direzione della persona umana, della sua valorizzazione e del suo sviluppo armonico nella società complessa.

Abstract
The concept of “performativity” has been a peculiar object of investigation for at least sixty years. It has been observed from different viewpoints, pertaining to multiple fields of research: linguistic, philosophical, ethno-anthropological, sociological, psychological, and pedagogical, all the way to political science and economics. In the chronology of research on performativity, which from the late 1950s to the present has aroused the interest of eminent thinkers and much of the academic world – particularly the U.S. and Anglo-Saxon ones – it is possible to identify a common thread that interconnects the different fields of inquiry and places them in dialogue on the “performative problem”, giving the topic an interdisciplinary connotation that is formative, cultural, and territorial. Starting from these premises, this research wanted, first, to recover the educational, cultural and communicative significance of performance; second, to actualize the “performative problem” within the educational and didactic curricular activities of the elementary school; last but not least, to focus on some possible declinations of artistic expression as a tool for the elaboration of pedagogical paths that allow the “transition” from a performative and hetero-directed conception of personal acting to a trans-formative, and therefore, pedagogically oriented conception of the same acting, in the direction of the human person, his or her enhancement and harmonious development in the complex society.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
