A selection of his writings and speeches 1945-1993

Loris Malaguzzi was one of the most important figures in 20th-century early childhood education, achieving world-wide recognition for his educational ideas and his role in the creation of municipal schools for young children in the Italian city of Reggio Emilia, the most successful example ever of progressive, democratic and public education.

Despite Malaguzzi’s reputation, very little of what he wrote or said about early childhood education has been available in English. This book helps fill the gap, presenting for the first time in English, writings and speeches spanning 1945 to 1993, selected by a group of his colleagues from an archive established in Reggio Emilia. They range from short poems, letters, and newspaper articles to extended pieces about Malaguzzi’s early life, the origins of the municipal schools, and his ideas about children, pedagogy, and schools.
