Abstract

To think the human body means to give him the enough entity to value it and to locate it as outstanding element of knowledge. It is not possible to undertake a task of understanding about the human problems, without understanding that the body is the fundamental unit of a net of interdependent, fragile systems and of great complexity; in and of itself, the body should be matter of special learning and care from the first years of life. The article approaches the body-fellow’s importance in the education, proposal that it transcends the physical education and the artistic education, as supposed areas that are in charge of directly of the corporal question.
