Un Maestro come modello di vita e di pensiero

Abstract

The present article focuses on pedagogical aspects emerging from Chiara Lubich’s written work and oral conversations. Here, three major points are elaborated: the importance of the relationship as a fundamental element of education; the importance of the educational model, conceptualised as the need of an Ideal Teacher source of life inspiration; the concept of thought and knowledge as a service of love to the world. Points of conversation were fostered within the framework of these aspects to develop a model upon which education, thought and action are built as means of fraternal service.
