The rooms. The non-places of the existential narrative

Abstract

All stories are born in a place, sometimes so large as to make them easily recognizable, sometimes so small as to decree their invisibility. And among the little ones, the room, the place non-place of intimacy, in which we reflect and which reflects us, in a journey that is always personal and collective at the same time. Therefore, the room will be analyzed as one of the loisir spaces, in which to collect a good part of those experiences, real or imaginary, in which it is possible to identify a precious reserve of creativity. Furthermore, the room acts as a privileged place in which to experience the threshold, a way of being in the world which is always on the edge of a question, but also as a space in which part of those structural couplings that we determine and that determine us take place and by virtue of which the rooms outside us become rooms within us and rise to the role of pedagogical devices.
