- Title
Maria Montessori et la France. Genèse d'une histoire.
- Authors
Gilsoul, Martine
- Abstract
This article deals with the first twenty years (1911-1934) of the presence of the Montessori Method in France. The reconstruction is based on written evidences and on the main actors' experiences in the implementation of Maria Montessori's ideas. This historical outline allows to better recognise the reasons why Montessori's educative principles were not welcomed in France so warmly as in other European countries. Several initiatives took indeed place, but they remained insubstantial because they were almost always the result of efforts carried by single persons rather than institutions.
