ABSTRACT
The narrative of the labyrinth is about entrance and introduction, winding and change, wandering and wondering. Learning is a labyrinthine wandering: learning by detour i.e. meandering to and fro. Labyrinthine time means rather to pay attention than to speed up, to find time rather than to impose it. The wandering movement in the labyrinth is not simple, but multidimensional. Wandering reveals itself as a winding way of movement and wondering. Wandering reveals itself as a winding way of movement and wondering. The labyrinth delivers a sort of grammar for the understanding of wandering. Wandering "in" and "out" into the world, moving to and fro, winding in curved lines and wondering the labyrinth delivers a bodily and pictorial "language" for the anthropology of human movement and play. And if wandering is related to labyrinthine movement, it must also be seen in the context of and as an alternative to racing, the modern cult of the straight line.
