The Silence-Word Rhythm, Key to Finding and Listening in a Frenzied Atmosphere
Actualidades Pedagógicas

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to show the need to recover silence, which, as an anthropologically essential element, becomes key to finding and listening to Others, themselves and nature in an environment saturated with frenzy, screams and words that dominate the modern man. It also shows how silence, the love for being with your own thoughts and feelings, for listening and waiting, for evoking and imagining, seems to have diminished if not disappeared in many social contexts. In short, the purpose is to present silence as an anthropological dimension that can be recovered and experienced among environments saturated by noise and frenzy.
