L’epistemologia della letteratura per l’infanzia nell’orizzonte dell’attesa e nella narratività genitoriale

The article aims at discussing the relational space between author and reader in the experiential gesture of reading, and the conditions in which such gesture provides for the active participation of the reader so that he collaborates in the realization of the meaning of the text. This dynamics is found in the parenting moments that offer the reading of the fairy tale plot in early childhood. The same dynamics appears to be found in the epistemic conditions of literature, generating the subsequent pleasure it arouses in life.
