Abstract

This article talks about the didactic experiences that, based on philosophy, go beyond their formal task and push the outer edge of the same discipline. I have taken part in some of these experiences personally as a teacher and, in some others, I have been an attentive and nearby observer. Some of these experiences are: philosophy with children, philosophy with people that have intellectual disabilities, philosophy with prisioners, philosohpy with housewifes, philosophy was a therapy, philosophy like if you were to drink a coffee with friends, philosophy as if it were fiction.
