Il diario di un maestro “ribelle per amore”: fra scrittura autobiografica e riflessione pedagogica = The diary of a primary school teacher who was a "rebel for love": between autobiographical writing and pedagogical reflection

This paper offers a preliminary exploration of some educational topics found in Il sigillo del sangue (1947), the published diary of Emiliano Rinaldini, a primary school teacher from Brescia. Through the lens of his autobiographical testimony as a young “rebel for love” during the Second World War, the contribution highlights how narrative practice was strictly connected to the gradual development of an original professional identity inspired by an experiential pedagogical approach of human person.
