(objectives)
The course aims to illustrate the process of formation and development of the Italian language from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century, with particular reference to the formation of the vernacular (and therefore with the acquisition of the foundations of historical grammar), to the relationship between Latin and vernacular and between Tuscan and other dialectal and regional varieties, the constitution of the literary language and of the written tradition, the establishment of the rule, the history of the linguistic debate, the processes of literacy and Italianisation.

(syllabus)
The course presents the structures of the Italian language, examining them first according to the level they belong to (phonological, morphological, syntactic, lexical) and then highlighting how they function within texts. Particular attention will be paid to textuality and the structures that characterise and define different types of text (narrative, descriptive, expository, regulatory, argumentative). At the end of the course, students will be familiar with the basic concepts and categories of Italian linguistics and will have learned how to use them to achieve a deeper and more informed understanding of the various types of texts.
