Abstract

Modern education has left emotions behind to focus almost exclusively on the development of rational thinking processes and on the scientific method as the only way to get knowledge about the world. Both criticism to the universal reasoning made by critical pedagogy, and the recovery of the role of body and emotions have been recently reinforced by recent research on how the brain works and the role of emotion in cognition. In this article, the author supports the role of art and creativity as a means to achieve a lifelong learning which encompasses the complexity of human beings and their relationships with others.
