Course title 2020-2021: A Diogneto

The course aims to deepen, according to various perspectives of investigation (philological, linguistic, literary, historical, doctrinal) the discourse of the protrettic genre that an anonymous author, probably around the end of the second century, addressed to the pagan Diognetus. From its discovery onwards, this work, composed in a very elegant Greek and transmitted to us by a single manuscript, continues to arouse great interest for its message on the relationship between Christians and the "world", as well as numerous questions about its literary unity and many passages, problematic from the point of view of the critique of the text.

Course title:
Monastic traditions of the Latin West: the Regula monachorum by Isidore of Seville

Course description:
The monographic module intends in the first place to retrace the origins and typologies of the monastic phenomenon - notoriously one of the most characteristic expressions of religious and cultural history of the Middle Ages -, and then to analyze, with particular attention to the lexicon and the use of sources, the Regula monachorum by Isidore of Seville, a text that has not been studied so far, but due to one of the greatest auctoritates of medieval culture. - As part of the module, exercises will also be activated aimed at guiding the knowledge and use of the main bibliographic and IT tools for the study and research on Middle Latin authors.

The course is for students that got the laurea triennale, trying to give them tools and methods to afford prehistory research projects in the framework of European prehistory and protohistory, and affords the argument of the formation of the Etruscan cities between the end of the Bronze Age and the early Iron Age.
This theme will be developed with particular attention to the geographic area occupied by the Etruscan Dodecapolis, between Tuscany and northern Lazio, trying at the same time to analyze the areas concerned already in the protohistoric age with its expansion, such as the Po Valley and Campania and will be carried out in connection with the master's degree course in Etruscology and Italian Antiquities in which the developments of this situation in the Orientalizing and Archaic age will be studied in depth.
The course includes both introductory lectures and seminars for attending students in which various case studies will be examined, also with the help of experts who will be invited to present the results of their research, organizing if possible also visits to museums and/or archaeological areas.

Course 2020-2021 title: The landscape of the Greek polis. The course begins with an introduction on traditional and new trends in the study of Mediterranean History and Archaeology. Afterwards, it deals with the archaeology of the Greek landscape and in particular the archaeology of the polis in relation to its territory (chora). The following topics will be examined: the human settlement choices from the Late Bronze Age to the Geometric period; the emergence of the polis with special interest in the spatial dynamics underlying the polis system; the impact of Greek cities on the environment in regional and micro-regional contexts; the the economy and the exploitation of natural resources; the inner spatial layout of the Greek cities, with particular attention to the relationships between urban spaces and civic-social meanings and the urban space-syntax; housing archaeology and the evolution of the polis in the Hellenistic period; the relationship between access to the city and the road network; the rural dimension of the territory (chora) in its essential union with the city (asty); the role of satellite settlements; the Greek city in the Roman times and the changes in the territorial structure in the mid-term.

From research to storytelling: St. Peter’s in the Vatican before and after the Holy Door (8th-17th centuries)

Why does the Holy Door titulus of the new St. Peter’s dating from the time of Paul V (1612) bear an inscription dating to the time of Gregory XIII (1575)? If every monument is a document, there must be a reason that can be investigated with the tools of historical and historical-artistic research. Tracing the history of a place in the Vatican basilica that is rich with ritual meanings, these lectures are aimed at: recomposing the phases and transformations of a place in the ancient basilica that has left memories and evidences of itself in the new one; experimenting different kinds of investigative strategies; questioning about the narrative of what we discover, because only «the story reveals the meaning of what would otherwise remain an intolerable sequence of events».

“The inscriptions of the praetorian prefects”
The long history of the praetorian prefecture stretches for six centuries between the late Augustan age and the Justinian age. The life, social origin, culture and career, skills and activity, the profile and extension of the mandate of its owners, i.e. the praetorian prefects, changed over time, and significantly in the first half of the Fourth century. The transformation of the office, its being at first dangerously close and then definitively distant from the person of the Emperor, without institutional roots either in Rome or in the cities of the Roman Empire, had important epigraphic consequences: first of all on the typology and conservation of the inscribed monuments, made in honour of the prefects and made by the prefects themselves, then on the consistency and representativeness of the surviving epigraphic heritage. The student faces the analysis and interpretation of the epigraphic texts relating to the holders of the prefecture between the First and Sixth centuries: he is called upon to reflect on the historical contextualization of careers and to formulate hypotheses on the paths of realization and conservation of the inscribed monuments.

Course title 2020-2021: Purity and pollution, guilt and sin, contamination and contagion in Ancient Christianity
Teaching articulation: 6 CFU
Semester: I

Course description:
Christians inherit from the Jewish world a corpus of Scriptures that they reinterpret in the light of Jesus' message: among them, a prescriptive book like Leviticus which, through a sophisticated classification system, regulates rites and behaviors. The detailed description of the sources of pollution (unclean animals, corpses of animals, blood, diseases such as leprosy, illicit sexual intercourse, etc.) and the rites necessary to restore the state of purity, acquires, in Christian reading, new and multiple meanings, expressions of different Christianities. These interpretations are rooted in specific conceptions of the relationships that must exist between God, the world and man and are often able to provide the faithful with answers to the questions raised by personal misfortune, natural disasters, illnesses; furthermore, they contribute to determine an alternative religious system to Judaism and the Greco-Roman religious world.
The course aims to focus attention on some texts - chosen as emblematic of different conceptions and practices - and to reconstruct their cultural assumptions through an appropriate historical contextualization.

Bibliography:
For attending students:
M.Douglas, Purity and Danger. An Analysis of Concepts of Pollution and Taboo, Routledge, London 1966 ( and further editions)

Christianity and secularization
Starting from the political and social transformations introduced by the French Revolution, the course intends to analyze the evolution of doctrinal debates and State legislation which during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries profoundly modified the relationship between society and Christian religion, and aims to verify the repercussions that the impact with the modernity and the secularization have had on the internal life of the Christian communities, in their various components.
The analysis will be conducted by reading the sources and comparing different historiographic interpretations of the topics covered.

Codicology
The course aims to address the study of the characteristics of manuscripts, Latin and Greek, with particular regard to their value for philological and historical-cultural studies. In this regard, the external characteristics of the manuscript will be examined (material techniques for preparing the book as a physical object, ways and means of production, with regard to the professional figures involved in the production process), as well as the cultural landscape of the times and places of origin of the manuscript books. An in-depth study will be devoted to the methods and problems of description of the late medieval codices. This course will include both the examination of reproductions of manuscripts, in paper and electronic format, and the direct examination of manuscripts and writing materials, through visits to archives and libraries.

The final exam will include the knowledge of the material provided during lessons and the discussion of one subject which the student will decide to study in depth. In addition students are required to study the following texts:
• M. Maniaci, Breve storia del libro manoscritto, Roma, Carocci, 2019;

• M. Cursi, Le forme del libro. Dalla tavoletta cerata all’e-book, Il Mulino, Bologna 2016, cap. III (pp. 97-160);
• Two articles among those presented during the course.

The first part of the course is devoted to the changes taking place within the public and political scene and the most important theoretical contributions. In the second part will be considered the main areas of transformation of political communication in relation to the recent history of Italy. In the third part will analyze the role played by television and social media in the popularization of politics. The recent election campaign of the US Presidential Elections will be analyzed and studied.
The course includes the viewing and analysis of audiovisual materials propaganda such as television programs, documentaries, commercials, posters. A good knowledge of the Italian contemporary history is preparatory to the course content.

Women and faith in Middle Ages: feminine protagonism or social compulsion?
The lessons want to analyse the link between women’s experience and religious life in Middle Ages. Specifically, they question the objectives, the forms and ways of this participation. Is it a form of social compulsion in which women are submitted to men’s predominance – as in social dimension of family happens – or they are able to find a personal fulfilment thanks to religious dimension, also because they escape familiar contest? Which link is established with men, which are still present in religious and ecclesiastical contest like spiritual counsellors, religious Order’s founders or popes? We will try to ask these questions and others through the study of some of the most representative figures of the medieval period like Clare of Assisi, Frances of Rome, Catherine of Siena, Angela of Foligno and others. The lessons will be seminars in which we will dialogue and discuss different ideas.

1) Learning material - lecture notes and/or pdf depending on the evolution of the plague - will be elaborated during the lessons with attending students on the basis of: A. Bartolomei, Santità e mistica femminile nel medioevo, Spoleto 2013. Non-attending students must study all chapters of A. Bartolomei, Santità e mistica femminile nel medioevo, Spoleto 2013. For a deal with the publisher (CISAM) it is possible to buy the book online with a discount of 50%.

2) G. Vitolo, Medioevo. I caratteri originali di un'età di transizione, Sansoni 2000: only for students who have never taken an exam of medieval history

The course aims to present an updated and comprehensive picture of medieval culture (fifth-fifteenth century), framing Italy within a broader Euro-Mediterranean context. Taking into account the most recent historiographical debates and acquisitions, lessons will try to bring students closer to different aspects concerning cultural phenomena, starting from definitions and categories such as "culture", "written culture" and "intellectual" to analyze then school practices, literacy, production and circulation of texts in their relations with society, politics, economics and religion. More precisely, the lessons will focus on the following aspects: "culture" as a historiographic problem between theoretical debates and research; written sources: qualitative and quantitative aspects; the problem of literacy and school in the early Middle Ages; book culture in the early Middle Ages; documentary culture in the early Middle Ages; the eleventh and twelfth centuries between juridical renaissance, textual discoveries and school transformations; book culture of the late Middle Ages; documentary culture of the late Middle Ages; language: Latin and vernacular in the late Middle Ages; the fourteenth century and the relationship between crisis and cultural production; Humanism. Lessons will alternate between frontal explanations and direct exercises on the sources or on specific bibliography.

The course is intended to provide the knowledge about the Hellenistic painting in the Mediterranean through the acquisition of methodological instruments useful to understanding the pictorial experience in all its aspects (formal and stylistic, iconographic and technical). Within the course, the forms and contents of painting will be analyzed in their social and political use, embedded in the historical and cultural context. Very closely related artistic genres will also be explored, such as the figured floor mosaic and the painted stucco wall systems that developed in this period.

LANDSCAPE ARCHEOLOGY: between collective MEMORY, COMMUNITY and PROJECT. Landscape archaeology approaches the communities and the history of their territories, and it contributes to the definition of criteria for sustainable development. Various case studies will be examined relating to more or less successful experiments of integration of archaeological and historical landscape studies with the design and planning of contemporary landscape contexts. The legislative stages of the regulations on the protection of territorial contexts will be retraced, up to the Faro Convention (2005), its implications and its recent implementation in Italy. Guidelines will be drawn up for the application of forms and initiatives of public archaeology, on the basis of solid 'participatory' and shared research paths. Particular attention will be given to the dynamics of perception of the historical memory of the territories, to forms of active protection of the contemporary landscape (as a product of diachronic interactions between man and environment), to the public dimension of research on the cultural values ​​of a landscape.

Course title: The Museum in the contemporary debate: traditions and contradictions

Never as intensely as today, and at any latitude in the World, the museum institution is at the center of a debate that constantly questions its traditional status as a place of conservation, study and protection of collections. This course aims to offer a broad overview of the museum and of the Museum Studies (definition, statute, structure, services, spaces, professions) and to analyze some themes dear to Critical Museology, such as decolonization, delocalization, the development of museums of memory and human rights, the relationship with social and economic sciences, etc. The second part of the course will take place in the form of seminars conducted in class by students based on individual research. Numerous inspections are planned in the Roman museums, Covid 19 permitting.

The course program is composed of three sections.
1) History of archaeological restoration culture, with specific focus on Rome (Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, Imperial Fora). The lectures aim to highlight the history of changes and re-use which have led to the loss of the original architectural identity up to the time of its intentional “re-creation”, starting from the second half of the Eighteenth Century. This new culture and its different outcomes developed during the last two centuries will be analyzed: excavations, restorations, reconstructions, anastylosis and enhancement projects.
2) Lectures on the restoration culture relating to its interdisciplinary point of view.
3) Small group activities (critical analysis on design projects strictly related to cultural heritage).

On the basis of documents and contemporary testimonies to the different linguistic phenomena, the course will illustrate some aspects of linguistic communication in Latin, considered in its diachronic development (from protohistory to the Romance) and in its various registers (standard and informal). The reading and analysis of various texts regarding Latin technical-scientific and didactic literature is aimed at providing the tools to grasp the specificities of the historical evolution of the Latin language and to identify its morphosyntactic and stylistic peculiarities. For this purpose the course consists of:
(1) A number of lessons minded in particular to offer an overview of the history of the Latin language from its origins up to the 6th century A.D., through the reconstruction of its evolution in the dimension of language of everyday use and literary language;
(2) Setting, reading, italian translation and commentary of texts included in Latin technical-scientific (by Cato, Varro, Celsus, Apicius, Vitruvius, Mela, Seneca, Plinius senior, Frontinis, Vegetius) and didactic literature (by Virgilius, Anonymous of Aetna, Columella, Grattius, Nemesianus).

This section of the Byzantine Civilization teaching, addressed to graduate students of History and Art, Archaeology, and Religious Sciences, aims to investigate the reasons behind the fall of Constantinople and the way in which it fell in the hands of the Osman Turks, along with the direct and indirect consequences brought by this fall to the history of the Mediterranean civilization.

Firstly, this module shall deal with a topographical investigation of Constantinople, based on literary and figurative attestations that Byzantine writers and especially foreign travellers of the 14th and the 15th century offer on the city’s monuments, neighborhoods’ organizations and location and on the defensive structure, which includes but it is not limited to the great Theodosian walls.

Secondly, it shall reconstruct the final phases of the siege as well as the final battle.

Then, it shall unbiasedly analyse what was, contrary to popular belief, a not-so-predictable Turkish victory, which was the consequence of a superiority both numerical and of the military means or, with the words of Braudel, of the voluntary ‘will to fall’ of a politically exhausted Byzantium. On the contrary, the battle outcomes was unpredictable until the end, and what happened at last left speecheless and disoriented political observers from all around the world.
