Abstract
SANCHEZ BARBOSA, Diana Marcela and UNGER PARRA, Biviana. DIALOGUE AND PEDAGOGY IN SAINT AUGUSTINE’S DE ORDINE. Univ. philos. [online]. 2017, vol.34, n.69, pp.77-90. ISSN 0120-5323. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.uph34-69.dpdo.
The formation of the human being is a fundamental subject in Saint Augustine’s thinking. In his first works references to liberal arts are highlighted, and the dialogue form appears as a privileged vehicle of the educative process. In De Ordine, Saint Augustine represents a clear example of the interest and the appropriation of dialogue as a philosophical exercise, which has the double purpose of taking his listeners to the truth and to introduce the reader to the same dynamic.
Keywords : Saint Augustine; dialogue; De Ordine; Education; pedagogy.
