Collodi, a versatile author, proposes a pedagogy to educate conscious citizens. His texts promote national and civil values, counteracting prejudices and fostering useful knowledge. The transformation of Pinocchio into an honest boy emphasizes the formative role of the school, and other works such as “Storie allegre” recognize the central function assigned to irony, which alternates between comedy and reflectiveness that fosters critical thinking, especially in the bourgeois nineteenth century. Collodi offers a comprehensive view of the education of the Italian citizen, with a focus on the school as a promoter of active citizenship.
