Notes for a clinic of narration

Abstract

Since ancient times, narrative contributes to the development of thought and the refinement of language, through which human beings communicate, know themselves and understand reality. In the past two decades, however, the meaning and boundaries of narrative experience have radically changed since physical reality has given way to virtual dimension. In the age of the Internet, educating from an early age in reading and comprehension of narrative text restores the word’s transformative value and contributes in the strengthening of emotional development, in a logic of primary prevention of social disease.
