The work presented below aims to show how reading accompanies the person from the beginning of their lives in literate societies. The concept of ‘personalism’ resulting from its diverse interpretations throughout the 20th century is assimilated to the Aristotelian idea of the stages of man, and to that of reading as an unfinished process throughout life. Finally, as a methodological proposal for Language and Literature teaching, a table is provided. With it, apprentices can show and evidence the reality of the presence of reading in their lives, together with its universal and global nature.
