Feb 22BIESTA in the carSometimes we only read when we have to for lack of anything else. Lack of internet, people to talk to, pleasant situations, expectations. Here this text comes from a similar situation: in the car waiting for some evolution of the situation. I met BIESTA in person at a conference in…Scuola1 min readScuola1 min read

Dec 14, 2022Marx’s notebooks: SpinozaI have finished reading the (long) introduction by CUADERNO SPINOZA in the Spanish version. It immersed me in the life of the young Marx who “make do” as he can to become the philosopher that he was. “Spinoza Notebook” is written in 1841 and focuses on the Theological-Political Treatise and the Letters of Baruch Spinoza. It is all about the admiration and the influence that Spinoza’s philosophy had in the maturation of Marx’s philosophical-political reflection.Marx1 min readMarx1 min read

Also, remember other personal development books…Collaborazione1 min readCollaborazione1 min read

This also reminds me of the concept of chronotope. From a forthcoming publication in FRENCH : Analyse de tâches d’apprentissage et pratiques professionnelles en…2 min read2 min read
