The Complexity of 'Simple Aladdin': Psychodynamic Themes in the Works of Maria Montessori

Abstract/Notes: "MORE Abstracts 2003? The aim of this work is to suggest the possibility of a further interpretation of Maria Montessori’s thinking and works, with respect to the usual pedagogical one. In particular, a psychodynamic interpretation is proposed for certain aspects of her system. To do this, we must, on the one hand, define the concept of “psychodynamic theme” and the context of variety and complexity of psychodynamic tradition, linked to Freud and psychoanalysis, but not limited to these. On the other, the great “availability” of Montessorian thinking is stressed and accounted for in terms of the capacity to adapt, develop and grow – a presupposition that makes it particularly suitable for comparison with research spheres even not directly relevant to educational themes. Following a historical perspective, Maria Montessori’s university education and early works are taken into consideration within a scientific and cultural context not different from the one of the early Freudian experiences, with what would then be the discovery of the unconscious and of psychoanalysis, with reference to environments of dynamic psychiatry and to the experiences in psychiatric clinics. The idea is to demonstrate how this “coincidence” of contexts for the development of the two distant but parallel systems was not irrelevant. The contribution then goes on to analyse the works that a certain tradition tends to define of psychoanalytic inspiration: Il Segreto dell’infanzia, Il Bambino in famiglia, and La Mente del bambino, in order to demonstrate how psychoanalysis and the new Montessorian psychology performed an identical operation of revealing the internal dimension, as well as to evaluate the importance of some differences. The detailed analysis of the more “social” elements of the Montessori system becomes an opportunity to evaluate the importance and influences of Adler’s Individual Psychology on it. The many cues and hypotheses that emerge from this work aims to show that the “psychoanalysis” cited in Montessorian texts is not Freudian, Adlerian or relational – it is all of these put together. Our interpretative needs require differentiation, classification and criteria for distinguishing and ordering. This is a limitation that this work aims to overcome by redrawing not just an educationist and teacher Montessori but rather an “indefatigable researcher who, in several directions, explores man’s knowledge, such that today it stands as an old, sturdy and rich tree still capable of bearing much useful fruit” (Augusto Scocchera).
