Abstract
In light of the modern and historical evolution of the concept of "body value at school" and the possible theoretical and epistemological interpretations about it, the scope of the present work is to fulfill a scientific perspective of the "moving body" in general, as well as the reception of educational corporeality's needs in both the school and educational research in Italy. The linguistic evolution is back from a troubled procedure, which seems nowadays to have reached an epistemologically precise dimension. In fact, motor activities were introduced into the Italian school system as military exercise, after they simply were called physical exercise or physical education and in the end they were labeled motor education. These parallel paths have always been linked to the doubtful disciplinary nature of motor sciences and by the unremitting presence of the epistemological matter. during recent years, they have brought us to consider the concept of "educational corporeality" as a common denominator aimed at the construction of an educational knowledge that could reflect the complexity of the teaching-learning process. A possible theoretical framework is the concept of "simplexity", in which the body is seen as the starting point for all processes aimed at confronting the complexity of educational actions, as well as the guidelines related to modern educational research.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
