Often forgotten and ignored, shame is a feeling of indisputable moral value. It is a sign of responsibility in a convulsive world, a manifest expression of a trauma provoked by some kind of violence or an engine of action for change and, in this sense, revolutionary. This text reflects on the link between philosophy, shame and education, and argues, firstly, that the central task of philosophy, understood as a way of life and as transformation, is to shame without humiliating, placing the human being before his own ignorance; secondly, it will be affirmed that the capacity to feel shame, understood as a wet nurse of education, is a sign of a truly human education. What is argued here, then, is the educational value of a philosophical shame.
