Abstract/Notes: The introduction of complex mathematical concepts through perceptual and sensorial hands-on experiences is one of the most relevant aspects of the Montessori method proposal. This article aims to investigate the origins of the Montessori’s profound interest for mathematics, studying the history of the education of mathematics, after the unification of Italy, in which her school education took place. Her key concepts and beliefs about the learning of mathematics and, furthermore, the evolution of her proposal will be illustrated through the analysis of her main publications, both the generalist and the specialized ones in the field of mathematics (Psicoaritmetica and Psicogeometria), and handwritten notes about the lessons of XVI° international course, held in Rome in 1931, which the Opera Nazionale Montessori acquired from her students’ archives. Finally, an overview of the actualization of the Montessori method in the contemporary research will be explained, particularly focusing on the neuroscientific discoveries which have proved the effectiveness of the Montessori proposal to empower the cognitive processes involved in the development of mathematical thinking.

Abstract/Notes: Le acquisizioni della ricerca psicopedagogica consentono oggi di cogliere con maggior consapevolezza gli aspetti di attualità dell'opera di Maria Montessori e di comprenderne gli elementi precursori rispetto ad istanze che soltanto in tempi successivi a quelli in cui la studiosa visse si sono affacciate nel dibattito pedagogico. Il volume analizza in questa chiave il modello educativo della pedagogista: ne individua i presupposti teorici e i principi metodologici, ne discute le scelte operative, gli obiettivi e le procedure didattiche, ne presenta gli sviluppi nei diversi gradi scolastici, analizza i processi che si svolgono all'interno dell'ambiente d'apprendimento, discute i dati delle ricerche. Il suo intento è offrire una visione complessiva e complessa di tale modello, scevra di semplificazioni riduttive, in grado di coglierne lo spessore dei riferimenti teorici e metodologici senza perdere di vista la visione culturale e scientifica all'interno della quale esso si colloca. [Today, the acquisitions of the psycho-pedagogical research allow us to understand, with greater awareness, Maria Montessori’s production topicality and features which are precursor elements of instances that only after her death became object of interest into the pedagogical debate. The present volume analyzes, in the above mentioned perspective, Montessori’s pedagogical model: it spreads a light on the theoretical assumptions, and the methodological principles developed by the pedagogist; furthermore, her operational choices, along with the goals she set, as well as the didactic procedures she developed are discussed, the processes that take place in the learning environment are analyzed, and the research results are discussed, as well. The goal of the present book is to propose a complex overview of Montessori’s educational model, without reductive simplifications, a perspective that offers the opportunity to better understand the depth of the theoretical and methodological references discussed, but not neglecting the cultural and scientific view in which this model is placed.]

Abstract/Notes: Montessori's approach to psychoanalysis, particularly her contact with Freud, is analyzed. The subject is developed from a historical perspective, by tracing the direct and indirect influences between the two, and through the analysis of some Montessori's texts closer to psychoanalytic themes. It emerges that both are engaged in the work of “bringing out”, even with different motivations and outcomes, childhood in a new light. For this reason they were both considered uneasy in their time. Moreover, it is outlined that Montessori's relationship

Abstract/Notes: Kinder lieben es, Tätigkeiten nachzuahmen, die sie bei Erwachsenen im täglichen Leben sehen. Dies hat schon Maria Montessori beobachtet und entsprechende Übungen in ihre Pädagogik integriert - »Die Übungen des praktischen Lebens« sind fester Bestandteil der Montessori-Pädagogik. Die Übungen in diesem Buch helfen Kindern, wichtige Lern- und Entwicklungsprozesse erfolgreich zu bewältigen. Das Buch beschäftigt sich ausführlich mit diesem Thema und stellt eine Vielzahl an Übungen vor, die in dieser Fülle in keinem anderen Buch zu finden sind. Neben diesen praktischen Ideen werden in einem theoretischen Teil die wichtigsten Aspekte der Pädagogik Maria Montessori erläutert und die Einbettung der "Übungen des praktischen Lebens" innerhalb der Pädagogik deutlich gemacht. Das Buch eignet sich besonders für pädagogische Fachkräfte im Elementarbereich und im heilpädagogischen Arbeitsfeld. Aber auch Eltern, Großeltern, Tagesmütter und Spielgruppen - Leiterinnen finden darin interessante Impulse. [Children love to imitate activities that they see adults doing in their daily lives. Maria Montessori already observed this and integrated appropriate exercises into her pedagogy - »The exercises of practical life« are an integral part of Montessori pedagogy. The exercises in this book help children to successfully master important learning and development processes. The book deals with this topic in detail and presents a large number of exercises that cannot be found in any other book in this abundance. In addition to these practical ideas, the most important aspects of Maria Montessori's pedagogy are explained in a theoretical part and the embedding of the "practical life exercises" within the pedagogy is made clear. The book is particularly suitable for pedagogical specialists in elementary school and in the field of curative education. But also parents, grandparents, childminders and playgroup leaders find interesting impulses in it.]
