The course of Film History is part of the formative activities defined as characteristic of the Degree Course in DAMS (Arts, Music and Drama). This Degree Course aims at offering an adequate foundation training, an extensive knowledge and appropriate methodological and critical instruments in performing arts and film, television and digital media, offering as well an adequate know how for the organization of cultural, performing arts, film and audiovisual events. In the context of the two training courses offered by the Degree Course, the course of Film History is intended to provide 1) a foundation training of the film language, of the reference experiences and authors/authoresses in the world film history; 2) the ability to contextualize, compare and critically analyze films according to a plurality of references (a handbook, some theoretical articles, critical contributions of the time) and in the light of the direct vision of works; 3) the historic, critical and theoretical concepts necessary to the study of film history and useful to get a good mastery of expression in oral and written form.
