Summary "Chrecheurs de sources" by Dora Melegari is a philosophical discourse written in the early 20th century. The work examines the importance of self-awareness, imagination, and sensitivity in human development, highlighting how societal trends often suppress these qualities rather than nurture them. Melegari argues for a transformation in education and parenting, emphasizing the responsibility of both mothers and educators to cultivate the inner lives of children for the betterment of society. The opening of the text introduces the concepts of rabdomancy and the symbolic nature of tools used to uncover hidden truths, drawing parallels to the discovery of inner potentials within individuals. Melegari critiques contemporary philosophical and educational practices for neglecting the cultivation of imagination and moral sensitivity, illustrating how these foundational elements contribute to a fulfilling life. She calls for educators and parents to embrace their roles as "seekers of sources," dedicated to awakening and nurturing the hidden capabilities in children, thus fostering a more empathetic and aware society.
