Summary/Abstract: In the field of Glottodidactics, in general, and of Didactics of Italian language, in particular, Italian as a subject of study occupies a place of reference. According to this statement, the teaching of literature is not only a sub-discipline of Didactics itself, isolated and perfectly autonomous, but takes the shape of a fundamental deepening of the L2 language (the language as the object of study, so, in our case, Italian). The researchers in the field of Didactics usually consider that three main human motivations are identified in the learning process: duty, need and pleasure. This work is meant to explain such components of the bidirectional teaching-learning process and some forms of their impact on cultural elements and on the spirit of criticism.
