CHARABATI, esther. To de-classify Pinocchio. child.philo [online]. 2023, vol.19, e77224.  Epub 25-Oct-2023. ISSN 1984-5987.  https://doi.org/10.12957/childphilo.2023.77224.

The Adventures of Pinocchio is one of those few stories that has not only stood the test of time, but has become part of the culture and, 139 years later, continues to be recreated in literary, cinematographic, theatrical, plastic and even pedagogical versions. In this article we try to address some of the silences that Disney imposed on an important part of the story, leaving out, for example, the issue of poverty. Today we ask ourselves if a cultural product such as The Adventures of Pinocchio can trigger conversations and reflections with today's children, and if the school can appropriate this material to philosophize with students and even with adults. Why in a world of evildoers who steal, cheat, cook, sell or hang children, is the reproachful gaze fixed on a child who tells lies? What experiences does a child have to go through to see himself as "bad"? What are the risks of classification, on the other hand, so necessary in knowledge? Although we start from an experience carried out in a school in Mexico City, the analysis presented here is mainly concerned with the link between reading(s) and philosophical reflection in this story.
