Transmission

What Dominique Pagani says

Dominique Pagani presents transmission as the constant thread of his path as a teacher, an educational publisher and a musician: transmitting without saying too many foolish things or untruths1. He treats it as a broader concept than pedagogy, which is only one species of it. What the two have in common is the middle term between a sender and a recipient2. He rejects the idea of a knowledge already constituted that one would then seek to transmit: for him, transmission is an essential moment of knowledge itself3. He thus distinguishes two tasks, seeking to know and making known. In his view, teaching requires finding a clarity and a systematic character that did not exist before4. To illustrate transmission, he takes up from Hegel the metaphor of the girl with the fruits. In this connection, he says of himself that he transmits the creations of others rather than creating5.
