ABOUT THIS PRIMARY SCHOOL PROGRAM
HOME
if you think you are too old to read fairy tales, but are willing to reconsider---take the Faerie class, one week only, --read this essay.ON FAIRY STORIES, BY J.R.R. TOLKIEN.This school was unofficially inaugurated in 2006 in the lindo lungomare around the time of the passing of Padre Benito.
The program was inaugurated in classical Italian, yet with influence of a southern dialect of Sicilian which is not considered "Florentine" but nonetheless by those who were familiar with Dante Aligheri if only by means of oral traditions, of a lively and theatrical sort, which is eminently adaptable to any culture.
However, the adaptation of these materials to online use is an organic process, if one considers that some of the original contributors did not know how to read or use a computer or cell phone, and in some cases, were only noddingly familiar with a telephone, televison, or in-house toilet.
The original text of Pinocchio is part of the curriculum of this primary school which goes from grades one through four but can be adapted to any use.
Yes, you have to learn Italian if you wish to read it in the original; though, if that is not possible, in o rder to make this program available to anyone, it is not required.
(We have a basic Italian playlist so one can learn through music, by far the easiest way.
but it will help you out later on with Pasolini and Frassati, or just ordering with steez in hipster pizzerias.
Pinocchio is a fairy tale, too, and understanding the suspension of disbelief is part of the cor curriculum of the university.
In other words, when we say Pinocchio wants to be real, what do we mean?
The word real is from the word regale or royal--why is kingship perceived as "more real"?
Why is the rise of psychosis and other crises of "reality" parallel to the decline in the notion of regality and kingship? is there a correlation?
Other requirements include participation in a production akin to the one outlined in "burattino terapia" by docente Galletina.
The play's the thing, in which to catch the conscience of the king.
English speakers are assumed to be familiar with the hobbit as a popular English language fairy tale, and this is also a foundation for continuing on to Middle earth middle school, as well as matilda's @metoo curriculum of the Skandalon Skole which is a precursor to Pasolini's holywood high curriculum.
