Time and Imagination.
Time and imagination can represent the aesthetic form of human identity in the real meanings of its authentic freedom. The course will explore the aesthetic dimension of time as an insuppressible and fundamental condition of narrative identities and social coexistence between humans. The keyword of the curriculum offered by the reading of basic texts, will be the relationship with time: relationship which is understood as a constant and essential qualification of human activity.
