Quella necessaria scissione fra maestro e allievo. Per una pedagogia lacaniana

What is a separation in an educative relationship? Which words can describe and redefine the feelings we live, if this relationship is the one between the master and the student? If pedagogy is fulfilled by theories and methods that help teachers and masters to build valuable relationships, less space is given to the student to tell about and to reframe these disorienting situations. Starting from lacanian theories, explained and improved by Recalcati and the Clinica della Formazione, this contribution proposes the redefinition of some words from Recalcati’s psychoanalysis, applying them into the educative field in order to create a new language able to sustain the elaboration of the separation between student and master. In this erratic voyage, where the student lives the trauma of the separation from a reference person, this article envisions one of the biggest opportunity for human beings: to become adults. The essay reframes some essential characteristics of the educative relationship (the pedagogical heritage, the desire, the separation, forgiveness and its impossibility), to educate students in finding themselves the resilient strategies that constitute their unicity and unrepeatability
