This article aims to take a new look at the theme of play through the recognition of the semantics which are proper to it. The path we have identified develops around the suggestions of Huizinga, Caillois and Goffman’s thoughts. These authors have grasped in the theme of play, although with different perspectives, a symbolic space and a common practice necessary for the life of culture. In fact, within our play takes place/occurs the encounter and negotiation between the different points of view, necessarily heterogeneous and conflicting, as well as their unceasing/constant/ incessant re-inclusion in a shared horizon of meaning, capable of transcending them. For this reason, not only a simple affinity between play and teaching is given, but a dense relationship capable of directing our actions in the world and the ways in which we try to represent it.
L’articolo intende riflettere sul tema del gioco attraverso il riconoscimento delle semantiche che gli sono proprie. Il percorso individuato si sviluppa attorno alle suggestioni del pensiero di Huizinga, Caillois e Goffman. Tali autori hanno colto nel gioco, seppur con prospettive diverse, uno spazio simbolico e una pratica comune necessaria per la vita della cultura. All’interno del nostro giocare avviene infatti l’incontro e la negoziazione tra i diversi punti di vista, necessariamente eterogenei e conflittuali, così come la loro incessante re-inclusione in un orizzonte di senso condiviso, capace di trascenderli. Per questo motivo, tra gioco e didattica non si dà solamente una semplice affinità, ma una relazione densa in grado di orientare le nostre azioni nel mondo e i modi in cui tentiamo di rappresentarlo.

Abstract
This article aims to take a new look at the theme of play through the recognition of the semantics which are proper to it. The path we have identified develops around the suggestions of Huizinga, Caillois and Goffman’s thoughts. These authors have grasped in the theme of play, although with different perspectives, a symbolic space and a common practice necessary for the life of culture. In fact, within our play takes place/occurs the encounter and negotiation between the different points of view, necessarily heterogeneous and conflicting, as well as their unceasing/constant/ incessant re-inclusion in a shared horizon of meaning, capable of transcending them. For this reason, not only a simple affinity between play and teaching is given, but a dense relationship capable of directing our actions in the world and the ways in which we try to represent it.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
