Outlines of Church history in modern age (XIX-XX centuries)
The course will provide the basic outlines of the Church history’s principal events and problematic nodes in the modern age, in particular from the French revolution to the renewal begun by the second Vatican Council. It will pay particular attention to methodological aspects: the historiography’s principal debates, the discipline’s technical language, the discussed subjects’ contextualization, the principal religious institutions’ significance and role, the interactions with the society and the culture, privileging the documents’ reading and making use of the maps, graphics and iconographic sources.
