20702448 - LATIN EPIGRAPHY L.M. (objectives) The student will start the advanced study of Latin epigraphy through the exegesis of epigraphic documents useful to deepen aspects of the Roman and Romanized world. - Derived from 20702448 EPIGRAFIA LATINA L.M. in Scienze delle religioni LM-64 N0 PORENA PIERFRANCESCO (syllabus) Course title: "Civic Identity in Late Antique Italy" Contents: Epigraphic sources in the cities of Italy from the 4th to the 6th century show that a global Italian identity did not develop even after the provincialisation of Italy, nor a provincial identity. The civic and local identity slowly weakened. The cities of Annonarian Italy adapted from the second half of the third century to the new fiscal and military needs consolidated by Diocletian and Constantine; the cities of Suburbicarian Italy remained in the orbit of the powerful and rich senatorial families, great landowners in southern Italy. Milan and Rome were the two different centres of this bipolarism. During the 4th century a "client-patron urban identity" was strong. This traditional relationship aroused deep emotions and inspired intense collective participation. The participation of citizens, their internal solidarity and affection for their homeland appear difficult to identify in the 5th-6th centuries. The survey of civic identity in Italy shows a 'negative' process of identity loss: both at the highest level of exhausted ecumenical imperialism, and at the local level of belonging to 'Romanity'.

20702453 - EARLY CHRISTIAN LITERATURE L.M. (objectives) The student will acquire in-depth and detailed knowledge of the characteristics of Christian literary production in the first three centuries; ability to apply the methodology of philological and literary research to unfamiliar sources; ability to collect and interpret the acquired data, as well as to integrate them with an independent use of scientific research tools, arriving at formulating complex assessments; ability to express and communicate in a clear and scientifically correct way the conclusions of the study and research activity. - D'ANNA ALBERTO (syllabus) Course title 2019-2020: The apocryphal infancy gospels (1st-3rd century). Traditions on the birth and childhood of Jesus are not only contained in works that have become canonical (the Gospel of Matthew, the Gospel of Luke), but also, and to a much greater extent, in an apocryphal literary production, interesting both from the point of view of content, as from that of phenomena of transmission that characterize it, paradigmatic of the fate of texts without a status of authority. The module aims to deepen, from various perspectives of investigation (philological-critical, linguistic-literary, historical-doctrinal) some of the oldest works, such as the Nativity of Mary (Protoevangelium of James), Liber requiei, Stories of Childhood [paidiká] of the Lord Jesus.

20702466 - HISTORY OF ANCIENT CHRISTIANITY L.M. (objectives) Acquisition of deepened and detailed knowledge of remarkable questions of the history of the ancient Christianity, analyzing sources of different typology and facing the historiographical debate. Acquisition of the scientific tools of search and of the necessary methodological principles for reading the sources. Ability to express and to communicate in form clear autonomous judgments on the analyzed matters. - NOCE CARLA (syllabus) Priest and king: priestly models from the origins of the movement of Jesus up to the time of Constantine The hinge between the second and third centuries represents a crucial moment in which the figure of the single bishop at the head of a community (Mono-Episcopate) is affirmed everywhere in Christian ecumenism. To the bishop has been attributed, at the level of symbolic construction, prerogatives proper to the divine world or royalty (monarchical Episcopate): he is the absolute head, clearly superior to the rest of the clergy. At that time, on the other hand, there is a general adoption of priestly terminology to indicate the ministers of Christian worship, a phenomenon which criticism has attempted to explain, proposing different types of response but agreeing in pointing out how such a figure should be understood in the light of the categories of power and divine authority of the Roman political world . The course aims to investigate, analyzing sources of various nature- with ample space to iconographic ones- the possible cultural matrix from which Christian authors of the first centuries draw sap to create their priestly model; it also aims to follow its main developments up to the Constantine turning point, tracing continuity lines up to medieval times.

20710438 - FILOLOGIA BIZANTINA L.M. (objectives) Firstly, this section shall try to reconstruct the different phases of the siege and of the final battle on the 29th of May 1453, in which the Osman Turks of Mehmet II Fatîh brought to an end, at least politically, the Byzantine empire and the eleventh centuries of Byzantine life. The analysis of the events shall be done by a comparative reading and a precise exegesis of ‘official’ sources of both the sides, namely Byzantine (George Sphrantzes, Doukas, Critobulos, Laonikos Calcondilas) and western sources (Isidore of Kiev, Leonard of Chios, Niccolò Barbaro) but also islamic ones, particularly those of the Ottoman Chroniclers of the cohort of Mehmet II (Tursun Beg e Ibn Kemâl). To this first group of sources, which, although they are known to the historians, could yet still be given other interpretations, we shall add the exploration of less known attestations, which are either partially edited or still unedited. These attestations are actually memorials of different sort that various observers from different lineage and nations wrote, to be used by powerful people of whom they were or could be considered emissaries: the so-called ‘spies’voices’ that are yet to be considered in the historical evaluation of the battle of the 29th of May 1453. - RONCHEY SILVIA (syllabus) 29th MAY 1453.

M. in Scienze delle religioni LM-64 N0 LUCERI ANGELO (syllabus) The course is aimed at all students wishing to gain a solid understanding, in a historical-cultural perspective, of themes and forms of Latin literature ranging from the phases immediately preceding the fall of the Western Roman Empire to the threshold of the Carolingian Renaissance, with particular reference to the culture of the so-called Roman-barbarian kingdoms. To this end, it is divided into two parts. 1) An initial cycle of lessons will offer an organic picture of authors and tendencies of Latin literary production determined by the meeting of the barbarian civilizations with Romans and Christians, between the end of the 5th century and the end of the 7th century 2) In the second part, paying attention to the aspects of form, style and metric, the course will proceed with the complete reading, interpretation and commentary of the "Aenigmata", a collection of one hundred riddles - each consisting of three hexameters - attributed to the not otherwise known Symposius. Perhaps produced in the same African environment in which, towards the end of the Vandal kingdom (534 AD), the so-called Anthologia Latina was set up, unlike other compositions transmitted only by the ms. Parisinus Lat. 10318 (the Salmasianus), the work has known a wide manuscript tradition, becoming the forefather of a very successful literary genre, halfway between teaching and entertainment.

20703032 - MEDIEVAL HISTORY II L.M. - MICHETTI RAIMONDO (syllabus) This class, entitled “Francesco d’Assisi tra mito e storia” (“Francis of Assisi between myth and history”) want to use the character of saint Francis as an occasion to discover and learn the historic method and as a useful case of study to approach other historical subjects. In particular the class will establish a connection between two focuses of the research. The first-one will deal with the success of saint Francis in the present time in which he could be considered as a marker of the great political and social contradictions of our age: from the conflict between capital and work to the alternative between peace and war, from the environmental question to the more recent globalisation. Furthermore, we will analyse the exceptional success of saint Francis as icon who, being able to encroach upon the myth, shows a non-common creative force in the cultural context: from literature to visual arts, from painting to cinema, from music to philosophy until the reflexions of the psychiatric research. The second focus will try to verify if the medieval character of Francis of Assisi, as we can know through the texts of the XIII century, is the same or not of the one belonged to the modern imagination. The class will analyse matches, frictions and historical projections of the past on the present through seminar lessons conceived as a real historical research to share with the students.

The civic and local identity slowly weakened. The cities of Annonarian Italy adapted from the second half of the third century to the new fiscal and military needs consolidated by Diocletian and Constantine; the cities of Suburbicarian Italy remained in the orbit of the powerful and rich senatorial families, great landowners in southern Italy. Milan and Rome were the two different centres of this bipolarism. During the 4th century a "client-patron urban identity" was strong. This traditional relationship aroused deep emotions and inspired intense collective participation. The participation of citizens, their internal solidarity and affection for their homeland appear difficult to identify in the 5th-6th centuries. The survey of civic identity in Italy shows a 'negative' process of identity loss: both at the highest level of exhausted ecumenical imperialism, and at the local level of belonging to 'Romanity'.

20702453 - EARLY CHRISTIAN LITERATURE L.M. (objectives) The student will acquire in-depth and detailed knowledge of the characteristics of Christian literary production in the first three centuries; ability to apply the methodology of philological and literary research to unfamiliar sources; ability to collect and interpret the acquired data, as well as to integrate them with an independent use of scientific research tools, arriving at formulating complex assessments; ability to express and communicate in a clear and scientifically correct way the conclusions of the study and research activity. - D'ANNA ALBERTO (syllabus) Course title 2019-2020: The apocryphal infancy gospels (1st-3rd century). Traditions on the birth and childhood of Jesus are not only contained in works that have become canonical (the Gospel of Matthew, the Gospel of Luke), but also, and to a much greater extent, in an apocryphal literary production, interesting both from the point of view of content, as from that of phenomena of transmission that characterize it, paradigmatic of the fate of texts without a status of authority. The module aims to deepen, from various perspectives of investigation (philological-critical, linguistic-literary, historical-doctrinal) some of the oldest works, such as the Nativity of Mary (Protoevangelium of James), Liber requiei, Stories of Childhood [paidiká] of the Lord Jesus.

20702448 - LATIN EPIGRAPHY L.M. (objectives) The student will start the advanced study of Latin epigraphy through the exegesis of epigraphic documents useful to deepen aspects of the Roman and Romanized world. - Derived from 20702448 EPIGRAFIA LATINA L.M. in Scienze delle religioni LM-64 N0 PORENA PIERFRANCESCO (syllabus) Course title: "Civic Identity in Late Antique Italy" Contents: Epigraphic sources in the cities of Italy from the 4th to the 6th century show that a global Italian identity did not develop even after the provincialisation of Italy, nor a provincial identity. The civic and local identity slowly weakened. The cities of Annonarian Italy adapted from the second half of the third century to the new fiscal and military needs consolidated by Diocletian and Constantine; the cities of Suburbicarian Italy remained in the orbit of the powerful and rich senatorial families, great landowners in southern Italy. Milan and Rome were the two different centres of this bipolarism. During the 4th century a "client-patron urban identity" was strong. This traditional relationship aroused deep emotions and inspired intense collective participation. The participation of citizens, their internal solidarity and affection for their homeland appear difficult to identify in the 5th-6th centuries. The survey of civic identity in Italy shows a 'negative' process of identity loss: both at the highest level of exhausted ecumenical imperialism, and at the local level of belonging to 'Romanity'. (reference books) Attending Students: Handouts (xerocopies and PDFs) and materials provided by the teacher at the beginning of the course and during the lessons. Non-attending Students: - A.

20702457 - LATIN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE - ROMAN-BARBARIAN PERIOD - L.M. (objectives) The student will acquire awareness, through the direct knowledge of literary and legal documents, of the cultural dynamisms of late Roman and subroman Europe, with particular attention to the integration of the different immigrant peoples in the Latin West. - Derived from 20702457 LINGUA E LETTERATURA LATINA ROMANOBARBARICA L. M. in Scienze delle religioni LM-64 N0 LUCERI ANGELO (syllabus) The course is aimed at all students wishing to gain a solid understanding, in a historical-cultural perspective, of themes and forms of Latin literature ranging from the phases immediately preceding the fall of the Western Roman Empire to the threshold of the Carolingian Renaissance, with particular reference to the culture of the so-called Roman-barbarian kingdoms. To this end, it is divided into two parts. 1) An initial cycle of lessons will offer an organic picture of authors and tendencies of Latin literary production determined by the meeting of the barbarian civilizations with Romans and Christians, between the end of the 5th century and the end of the 7th century 2) In the second part, paying attention to the aspects of form, style and metric, the course will proceed with the complete reading, interpretation and commentary of the "Aenigmata", a collection of one hundred riddles - each consisting of three hexameters - attributed to the not otherwise known Symposius. Perhaps produced in the same African environment in which, towards the end of the Vandal kingdom (534 AD), the so-called Anthologia Latina was set up, unlike other compositions transmitted only by the ms. Parisinus Lat. 10318 (the Salmasianus), the work has known a wide manuscript tradition, becoming the forefather of a very successful literary genre, halfway between teaching and entertainment.

20703032 - MEDIEVAL HISTORY II L.M. - MICHETTI RAIMONDO (syllabus) This class, entitled “Francesco d’Assisi tra mito e storia” (“Francis of Assisi between myth and history”) want to use the character of saint Francis as an occasion to discover and learn the historic method and as a useful case of study to approach other historical subjects. In particular the class will establish a connection between two focuses of the research. The first-one will deal with the success of saint Francis in the present time in which he could be considered as a marker of the great political and social contradictions of our age: from the conflict between capital and work to the alternative between peace and war, from the environmental question to the more recent globalisation. Furthermore, we will analyse the exceptional success of saint Francis as icon who, being able to encroach upon the myth, shows a non-common creative force in the cultural context: from literature to visual arts, from painting to cinema, from music to philosophy until the reflexions of the psychiatric research. The second focus will try to verify if the medieval character of Francis of Assisi, as we can know through the texts of the XIII century, is the same or not of the one belonged to the modern imagination. The class will analyse matches, frictions and historical projections of the past on the present through seminar lessons conceived as a real historical research to share with the students.

Acquisition of the scientific tools of search and of the necessary methodological principles for reading the sources. Ability to express and to communicate in form clear autonomous judgments on the analyzed matters. - NOCE CARLA (syllabus) Priest and king: priestly models from the origins of the movement of Jesus up to the time of Constantine The hinge between the second and third centuries represents a crucial moment in which the figure of the single bishop at the head of a community (Mono-Episcopate) is affirmed everywhere in Christian ecumenism. To the bishop has been attributed, at the level of symbolic construction, prerogatives proper to the divine world or royalty (monarchical Episcopate): he is the absolute head, clearly superior to the rest of the clergy. At that time, on the other hand, there is a general adoption of priestly terminology to indicate the ministers of Christian worship, a phenomenon which criticism has attempted to explain, proposing different types of response but agreeing in pointing out how such a figure should be understood in the light of the categories of power and divine authority of the Roman political world . The course aims to investigate, analyzing sources of various nature- with ample space to iconographic ones- the possible cultural matrix from which Christian authors of the first centuries draw sap to create their priestly model; it also aims to follow its main developments up to the Constantine turning point, tracing continuity lines up to medieval times.

The links between the so-called "Tre corone" Dante, Petrarch and Boccaccio with the visual arts will be specifically analysed: the influence of iconographic sources on the invention of Dante's otherworld and the illustrative tradition of his "Comedy"; the relationship between Petrarch, Simone Martini and the development of portrait; the links between the frescoes of the Pisan Camposanto and the project of Boccaccio's "Decameron".
