Abstract

Articulating the thoughts of Pope Francis, W.G. Sebald and Michel Maffesoli regarding the seventh commitment of the Global Compact on Education, which concerns care for the Common Home, this article aims, from a literary-philosophical perspective, to problematize the relationship between civilization and nature, both as critical resistance to the idea of ​​progress as the only possible path for human history, as well as indicating the elements for a different ethics, which highlight a new paradigm of understanding the environment and the relationships that are established within it. Postmodernity, in contrast to modernity, which with its emphasis on technical progress and the domination of nature, generated ecological and social crises, proposes a return to the sensitive, the imaginary and the symbolic as essential forms of knowledge and experience. This return to the sensible implies an appreciation of traditions, myths and rituals, which (re)connect individuals to a broader community and to nature.
