PIAZZA MARCO
(syllabus)
The course aims at presenting one of the main nodes of the so-called Philosophies of Habit, that is the reflection on the relationship between crisis and modification of individual and social habits at the heart of several philosophical reflections on habit from modernity onwards, with particular attention to the development that this theme assumes especially from the 19th century, at the crossroads between philosophy, psychology and social sciences. The first didactic unit (3 CFU) will be devoted to an overview of philosophical theories on habits and customs, from antiquity onwards, with particular attention to the twentieth-century theories of Durkheim, Dewey and Bourdieu. The second didactic unit (3 CFU) will focus on the relationship between crisis and interruption of habits, starting from the analysis of some texts of the late nineteenth century (Dumont, Peirce), and extending the attention to traumatic historical-social events such as the Covid-19 pandemic.
