FUNZIONI E PATOLOGIE DEL LINGUAGGIO E DELLA COMUNICAZIONE - LM
(objectives)
The course has two main goals. The first one is to propose an education finalized to learn the main classification methods of language disorders in pathologies such as aphasia, autism, schizophrenia. The second is to illustrate how the investigation of language disorders might be used to inform theoretical models on language functioning.
At the end of the course, the student will be able to: a) use knowledge on linguistic pathologies to reflect on the more general issue of the cognitive plausibility of the theoretical models proposed to account for the functioning of language; b) read and understand experimental scientific articles written in English dealing with issues relating to the cognitive foundations of language.

20709714 FUNZIONI E PATOLOGIE DEL LINGUAGGIO E DELLA COMUNICAZIONE - LM in Scienze Cognitive della Comunicazione e dell'Azione LM-92 N0 ADORNETTI INES
( syllabus)
The course focuses on language pathologies, with particular attention to the deficits related to the discursive communication. Among the cases discusses, there are the communicative deficits characterizing pathologies such as autism, schizophrenia, and traumatic brain injury. In such cases, as well as in many neuropsychological and psychopathological disorders, the communicative impairments mainly concern the level of discourse and depend on deficits that primarily involve the cognitive dimension, rather than the linguistic one. Thus, the study of discourse disorders is particularly useful to investigate a more general question that is extremely relevant from a theoretical point of view: the relationships between language and cognition.

LINGUISTICA E GIORNALISMO
(objectives)
The course aims to present the fundamental criteria and rules of the cognitive linguistics applied in the analysis of the journalistic discourse.
The purpose of the teaching/learning activities is the critical study of the the linguistic research trends focused on the mass media communication and, in particular, on the lexicon and the rhetorical figures present in the magazines and in the newspapers. In the same time, the relationships between grammar and semantic values are illustrated at the light of the holistic model of conceptualization and construction.
The course is divided in three sections:
1. Descriptions of the bibliographical references;
2. The cognitive linguistics: frames, prototypes and profilings.
3. Corpora analysis and ontologies linked to journalistic texts for special purposes present or not in internet.
Workshops, experiments and surveys complete the lessons face to face for improving a theorical and applied training.

The aim of the course is to provide the knowledge and the skills adequate to analyze, to compare, and to value the different kinds of texts and the diverse levels of messages structured in the pages of the newspapers.
The fil rouge of their 30.000 words printed every day and read by millions of people can be understood only considering a series of constructional facets of the discourse, its inferential valence and conceptual interfaces.
The rhetorical figures, as well as the various kinds of sentences, the lexical configurations and the idiomatic expressions are described in the light of the Critical Discourse Analysis and in that of the Cognitive Linguistics.

Word design and advertising - LM -
(objectives)
The course aims to define the Adv Language as a powerful tool of verbal-iconic design.
A series of teaching/learning activities complete the presentation of the cognitive models and the explication of the grammar that, marking slogans, headlines, jingles, captions and trademarks, change the objects we live by.
In this perspective the creative and innovative Adv Language is described as a perceptive transformer code, that has to understood through the different phases of project, realization, and representation. In this process the activities of naming regarding the products and the promotional messages are a fundamental strategy of conceptual construction.
With the course, the students also acquire the specific skill for transcribing them in a repository and analyzing complex icono-texts as the tv commercial and that of using their a-grammatical rules and their non-senses in a coherent and creative way.
The course is divided in three parts:
1.From the spatial design to the word design;
2.The grammar of the Adv Language between rules and semantic mappings;
3. The adv language around the bod mail-order catalogues and the trademarks of Cosmetics, Fashion, Food and Sport.
Workshops, experiments and surveys improve the theorical study with aapplied training.

CATRICALA' MARIA
( syllabus)
The most important objective of the course is to describe and to explain that the verbal and iconic strategies of the Adv messages are not a specific use of the common language, but they have to be considered elements of a separate code.
The blends present in the slogans, in the tv commercials, in the jingles, etc. as well as those used in the brands or into the packaging represent a sort of icono-texts, marked by a grammar and a series of unique rules.
The focuses of the courses are four: 1. Texts and hybridisms; 2. Phantawords; 3. Functions and strategies of valorizationa; 4. Naming activity, brands and identities.

EPISTEMOLOGY OF COMMUNICATION
(objectives)
The course aims to use the tools of epistemology to study communicative phenomena. To this end, we will first provide an introduction to the fundamental concepts of the theory of knowledge and the fundamental aspects of the scientific method. Some issues of social epistemology will then be addressed, such as epistemological disagreement, testimony and beliefs, the epistemology of experts.
At the end of the course, students will have acquired fundamental notions of philosophy of science and some tools to conduct the methodological and epistemological analysis of the communication models developed in various disciplinary sectors (such as cognitive science, psychology, ethology, theory of games).
-
VIOLA MARCO
( syllabus)
The course "Epistemologia e comunicazione" aims to present some theoretical tools of epistemology (classical and social) and to consider their application to two spheres of communication: scientific and digital communication. The course will therefore be divided into three parts, to each of which two weeks will be devoted. The first part, Outlines of Epistemology, will address some classic themes from classical epistemology, e.g., logic and argumentative fallacies, and from social epistemology, e.g., witnessing or epistemic injustice. The second part, Communication in & of Science, will present some elements of the internal social structure of science, such as peer review and the division of cognitive labor, as well as the topic of scientific communication. Finally, the third part, Communication and the Digital, will discuss issues such as the propagation of (dis)information through social networks, some ethical and welfare issues related to the architecture of certain platforms, as well as the problem of deepfakes and non-consensual dissemination of intimate images.

20711263 LABORATORIO DI LINGUAGGIO E SFERA PUBBLICA in Scienze della Comunicazione L-20 GIARDINI FEDERICA
( syllabus)
Coord. Paolo Virno, Marco Mazzeo e Federica Giardini
The political problems of modernity illustrated by Hobbes or Spinoza can be addressed by reconstructing the logic and genealogy of the concept of "ethos." The goal of the workshop is to build a toolbox capable of analyzing what we might call the "garments of the present": the characteristic modes of behavior, the specific passions, the particular modes of social (and antisocial) interaction typical of this end of the millennium. What is the ethics of neoliberal capitalism in the 21st century?
To answer this question will require a preliminary theoretical move, to understand more clearly what is meant by "ethics." Better to be clear: the workshop will dismiss the moralistic meaning of the term (ethics as morality, a norm that establishes good and sanctions evil). For this very reason, it will be necessary to sketch a starting identikit of a notion that risks, once the moralistic option is expunged, to be elusive. A selection of excerpts from Aristotle's Ethics to a reading of an essay by linguist E. Benveniste about "the free man" in the Vocabulary of Indo-European Institutions will help to understand the intertwining of ethos and habit, a key passage for both a theory of political action and a linguistic anthropology. What, in fact, is the animal that needs habits? In need of historical-cultural forms of organizing behavior is the animal lacking specialized instincts (Gehlen), the life form that needs to produce the means of survival (Marx). What the Greeks called "ethos" could be the link between the two classical definitions of human beings: sapiens are political animals and animals that talk.
However, the term "habit" risks generating a misunderstanding, alluding to a flat, appeasing repetition that can only establish custom. The term "ethos" seems to indicate, instead, a side b of the problem, a decisive dimension that overturns the customary one so dear to the empiricist of the eighteenth century or the fashionable pragmatist of the century just past. Ethos is such only if it is able to subvert, to put into crisis, itself. As habitual, ethos is the possibility of showing the threatening and disturbing face of habit ("disturbing" a finally political Freud would call it). For this reason, the workshop will investigate two areas in which the ambivalence of ethos reaches a climax: ritual practices and the intertwining of faculties of language and world perception. The first area will be investigated thanks to a text by one of the most important philosophers of the Italian twentieth century: E. De Martino's The Magical World. Magical rituality consists in the organization of habits of crisis, in the formation of anonymous and collective ethical structures (fire ordeals, shamanic trances) capable of showing the bewildering face of rain and wind, fire and thought. The second will find proof in L. Wittgenstein's reflections (Philosophical Investigations Part II; Observations on the Philosophy of Psychology) about the so-called "bistable figures" in which it is possible to see, alternately and mutually exclusive, the face of a hare or a rabbit, two human profiles or the outline of an amphora. What if bistability, the continually possible play of reversal between figure and background, is a defining feature of ethos?
Working on these questions, the workshop will try to return to the present and its ontology. With a swaggering goal that can rely on earlier work done in the late 1980s (AAVV, Feelings of the Aldiqua, 1990): to identify some of the ethical forms typical of linguistic-financial capitalism in order to adoints its inherent possibilities for overthrow. What is the subversive rabbit lurking in the duck called "life in the neoliberal age"? What amphora emerges from the double profile that present-day enthusiasts call "lifelong learning" and "precarious work"?

( syllabus)
The course focuses on the relationship between language and narrative from a cognitive and evolutionary point of view. In contrast to the theories considering the sentence as the essence of language, the course suggests an interpretative hypothesis based on the priority of discourse over sentence; specifically, it is suggested that the ability to tell stories is the distinctive trait both of language and human nature.
The course includes experimental activities aimed at supporting the theoretical model proposed.

The course deals with the relationship between music and society focusing on the following twofold aspects: a) “music as agency” in everyday life; b) the social construction of the carriers of musical texts and musicians. The first part of the course will provide to the students the analytical tools for understanding how and to what extent the music can contribute to construct the social meanings of experience, time and space. In everyday life music can function as technology of memory, emotions, cognition, constructing for the listeners frames, within which they are asked to experience their life. There are songs that contributed to defend human rights, others that became symbols of an epoch, historically and/or politically. The second part will address and problematize the notion of musical genius, by showing its social aspects. It will focus on the relation among genius, ethnicity, gender, and social class.

Delsere Laura
( syllabus)
The course aims to examine the history and present of news journalism today, its role in shaping public opinion, against the backdrop of a publishing market in crisis, more exposed to the pressures of audience and journalistic storytelling, in the name of infotainment.
Stories of enquiries and reporters in Italy and abroad will be retraced, exploring the role of the investigative journalist today between limits, threats and new opportunities; the selection of sources; interlocutors and research tools on the ground and online, Italian and EU databases, rights of access to institutional data (Foia and similar).
We will discuss resources from datajournalism, social media, and the implications of artificial intelligence on content production and consumption, between the digital revolution and the crisis of journalism.
A focus will be devoted to the anomalous space reserved for news in Italian news, the function of these editorial choices, between audience and censorship, and the comparison with the choices and consumption of information in other advanced democracies. We will also analyse investigative journalism and big news in the perspective of our republican history: from the role of the mafias to the strategy of tension and the 'Italian mysteries', with the emphasis on memory between newsroom and civil conscience.
Elements will be provided on the communication of public institutions, major private companies and advertisers, the role of press offices, corporate communication and crisis management, up to indirect lobbying.
The interaction of news with religious denominations (from Vatican information to relations with the Jewish community, Islamic associations and other cults) will be examined, as well as the issue of secularism.
The evolution of the right to report news will be retraced: Italian deontological documents (minors, hate speech, migration, feminicides, gender equality) and EU regulations, protection of sources and whistleblowing, privacy and information rights, publication of wiretaps and press offences, threats to reporters, as well as some of the tools for verifying and debunking news, to test conspiracy and disinformation online.
The workshop will have the students directly measure themselves with reconstruction of case studies and with the writing of texts intended for the various media: from the big news to the evolution of breaking news (environmental emergencies, health, terrorism, climate change), up to current affairs pages (mafias, crime, white and constructive journalism, judicial, gossip, sport), examining styles, languages and stereotypes.
