The essay defines the notion of language education, that is the object of the journal it introduces. The focuses of the essay are two: the nature of language education, i.e., the voluntary act of helping a human faculty (the faculty of language, which is specific to homo loquens) emerge (the word «education» derives from the Latin e ducere, «let out, let emerge»); the fields of language education in school systems, i.e. the teaching of the mother tongue (rather than «teaching» other terms could be used, such as «perfectioning», «developing metalinguistic awareness», as the mother tongue has already been acquired when school starts), of modern languages (foreign languages for all students; second and ethnic or community languages, in some cases) and of classical languages (Greek, Latin, Arabic and so on).

Abstract
The essay defines the notion of language education, that is the object of the journal it introduces. The focuses of the essay are two: the nature of language education, i.e., the voluntary act of helping a human faculty (the faculty of language, which is specific to homo loquens) emerge (the word «education» derives from the Latin e ducere, «let out, let emerge»); the fields of language education in school systems, i.e. the teaching of the mother tongue (rather than «teaching» other terms could be used, such as «perfectioning», «developing metalinguistic awareness», as the mother tongue has already been acquired when school starts), of modern languages (foreign languages for all students; second and ethnic or community languages, in some cases) and of classical languages (Greek, Latin, Arabic and so on).File | Dimensione | Formato | |
