the
unheard voice of children series |
|
| |
| |
Very few writers (perhaps
Mark Twain, Lewis Carrol, and Ian MacEwan) have been able to give
us back the true voice of childhood without falling into falsifications
or distorsions. In books written by adults, in fact, the words of
children often take on a strange artificial sweetness that makes them
lose their freshness and originality. Who could claim, then, to have
ever heard or read the true, direct voice of children? Only a very
few adults could give an affirmative reply to this question, also
because in all of world literature children have certainly been the
most gagged and silenced subjects. It seems to be an authentic, though
perhaps unconscious, conspiracy of silence. But children talk, and
they have always talked, though their words are rarely listened to
and leave no trace. The words of children may at times seem strangely
similar to our own, but they recall faraway and unknown worlds and
meanings to which we as adults too often remain deaf and insensitive.
Giving a voice to childhood thus means recognizing children's right
to be the primary authors of their lives. Giving a voice to children
is the courageous adventure of this editorial series that urges us
to open our ears and listen to this "unheard voice".
