This course aims to introduce the student to both theoretical and practical issues regarding human communication, language processing and their functional neurocognitive correlates. After introducing the student to the basic notions of animal and human communication and to the notion of linguistic structure, we will focus on the cognitive and neural substrate of communication and language processing. The contribution of functional neuroimaging techniques (fMRI, PET, MEG), neuropsychological investigation of language loss after cerebral injury (e.g. aphasic or right hemisphere damaged individuals) or degradation (e.g. patients suffering from Alzheimer or Parkinson’s diseases) as well as data from social neuroscience will be discussed.

INTERNET HISTORY AS A CULTURAL ARTIFACT
INTERNET HISTORY IS ONE OF THE MOST STUDIED ISSUES OF THE HISTORY OF TECHNOLOGY.
THE COURSE'S AIM IS TO ANALYZE THE HISTORY FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF ITS SOCIAL AND CULTURAL MEANING.
COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES ARE NOT ONLY TOOLS FOR COMMUNICATION, BUT MAINLY DEVICES WHICH MODIFY THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE PEOPLE WHO USE THEM.
THE CULTURAL ARTIFACT CHARACTER OF THE NETWORK AND OF ITS SERVICES, HAS NOT YET BEEN DEEPENED IN THE LITERATURE ON THE SUBJECT.
IN THIS COURSE WE WILL LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF THE NETWORK FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE TRANSFORMATION POWER IT DEVELOPED IN THE REARRANGEMENT OF THE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM BETWEEN HUMAN BEINGS, AT LEAST IN THE RICHEST PART OF THE WORLD IN WHICH ACCESS TO THE NETWORK IS GUARANTEED FROM SOCIO-POLITICAL CONDITIONS.
THE COURSE WILL TOUCH BOTH THE HISTORY OF THE TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT VIA A GENEALOGIC METHOD AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS DEVELOPMENT IS PROVOKING OR COULD PROVOKE IN TERMS OF OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS.
THE COMMUNICATIVE EMPOWERMENT, IN FACT, OFFERS NEW FREEDOMS AND OPEN SPACES BUT AT THE SAME TIME CAN CAUSE THE AGENCY OF NEW CONTROL POWERS AND NEW DEPENDENCIES FROM THE DEVICES.
ONLY THE INCREASE OF INFORMATION AND MEDIA LITERACY COULD DEFEND US FROM RISKS AND PUSH US TOWARD THE EXPLOITATION OF THE ACCESS OPPORTUNITIES.

The course is an introduction to the philosophy of mind informed by cognitive sciences. Cognitive science investigates complex organisms at the information-processing level of analysis, and it can be defined a peculiar level in the sense that it is suspended between two worlds. On the one hand, there is the ordinary image of ourselves as persons, namely as self-conscious, intentional, rational agents. On the other hand, we have the sub-personal sphere of the cerebral events, as investigated by neuroscience. Therefore, one of the main tasks for the philosopher of psychology is to unravel this peculiarity, trying to shed some light upon the relations between these different ways of describing ourselves. This course critically explores some classical attempts to accomplish this task.

The course is an introduction to the philosophy of psychiatry through a focus on identity psychopathology. We will see that there is a close interrelationship between the construction of psychological well-being and identity consolidation, which reveals itself most clearly in the developmental psychopathology of attachment. For according to attachment theory, maladaptive patterns in the infant-parent relationship are the origin of an insufficient sense of identity that may give rise to mental disorders.
The course will focus primarily on the dissociative disorders, including "psychogenic" or "functional" amnesia, fugue, dissociative identity disorder (DID, also known as multiple personality disorder), and depersonalization disorder.

Poverty. A genealogical approach
In the XXIst century society is no longer conceivable in relation to "labour". Subects and activities are in need of a new definition - between productive and improductive, worthy and unworthy, inclusion and expulsion. Governing the poverty seems to be a main issue in contemporary policies. Besides this critical and historical approach, a theoretical update will be given about the positive and exceeding dimensions of "poverty".

I testi in programma verranno presentati – anche con la partecipazione di docenti invitati/e - e poi discussi seminarialmente.
Al termine del corso, andranno presentati due scritti di minimo 15 cartelle
(una cartella = 2000 caratteri, inclusi gli spazi)
- un primo scritto intorno ai testi della sezione 1
- un secondo scritto intorno a una selezione dei testi previsti nelle sezioni 2 e 3.

1. Genealogie. Accumulazione originaria e povertà
La povertà è sempre effetto di un rapporto di forze, un prodotto storico. Esito di trasformazioni economiche e politiche, viene definita e governata come “condizione” morale e giuridica, oltre che sociale.

The course of this seminar tends to provide a method. Photography comes from a dialogue with eyes, mind and heart. We will illustrate practical examples taken from both my report and distinguished colleagues. In class some guests will tell their experiences. Finally, practical exercises will not be lacking to deepen what has been learned.

RACISM: AN ISSUE OF CONTEMPORARY HISTORY
The course aims at exploring the issue of racism as a distinctive feature of our contemporary age that influences collective imaginary, conditions intellectuals and scholars, inspires policies, laws and administrative strategies, and has also laid the foundations to systemic use of violence for ethnic cleansing and genocides.
We will explore the origins of racism, its main expressions in the development of European thought between 18th and 20th century, anti-Semitism, colonial racism, the relation between war and racism, the use of racial identities in propaganda and in movements of public opinion and racial policies in the 1900s. The question of racial identities in contemporary Italian history will be closely investigated.

The course treats the issue of linguistic pathologies with a particular focus on deficits involving the discursive level of communication. The main goal is to show how language deficits represent a key to highlight to the essential characteristics of human communication. Among the cases examined, autism, schizophrenia, head trauma and aphasia will be deeply discussed.

The course will present the basic concepts of pragmatics in linguistics, in particular language as communication and action, the illocutionary act, the use of performatives ; in addition it will discuss Grice’s cooperation principle, what is not explicitly said (inferences, implicatures and presuppositions). A final section will deal with the man topics in micro-pragmatics: the difference between text and discourse, the linguistic reference concepts (deixis and anaphora), information structure.

Students who will attend the course may write a survey in which they apply the theoretical concepts to a selection of various typologies of texts they will choose.

The lectures treat with the issue of the language faculty by taking into account the interpretive models prevalent in cognitive sciences. In an evolutionary perspective that takes into account the empirical results from cognitive psychology, cognitive ethology and neurosciences, the lectures deal with the biocognitive foundation of language and how it is relevant for the study of human nature.

The course will address the relationships between technology, science and philosophy.
Philosophy of technology is a relatively recent discipline that deals with relationships between Technology, knowledge and society.
The course wants to answer to the following questions:
What is technology?
Is it possible to think about science without a reflexion on technology in the present technoscientific environment?
Which are the relationships between society and technology?
Which are the relevant changes introduced by technology in living styles?
Is it possible to consider technology as neutral and value and ideology free?
Technology has a relevant and permanent influence on science and on knowledge building in general but also on the definition of society and its working assets. Technical artefacts produce changes on society and are influenced by social choices, political constraints and economical investments.
In this course we will discuss the importance of philosophy of technology for philosophy itself, if we accept the idea that philosophy is a research for understanding and for acting on present. If we accept this perspective we cannot ignore the importance of technology.
Technology has a the characteristic that it is created according to standards on which society has no direct control, but technical objects have relevant consequences on the functioning of social practices including the epistemological ones.

Technology has a relevant and permanent influence on science and on knowledge building in general but also on the definition of society and its working assets. Technical artefacts produce changes on society and are influenced by social choices, political constraints and economical investments.
In this course we will discuss the importance of philosophy of technology for philosophy itself, if we accept the idea that philosophy is a research for understanding and for acting on present. If we accept this perspective we cannot ignore the importance of technology.
Technology has a the characteristic that it is created according to standards on which society has no direct control, but technical objects have relevant consequences on the functioning of social practices including the epistemological ones.

The lectures treat with the issue of the language faculty by taking into account the interpretive models prevalent in cognitive sciences. In an evolutionary perspective that takes into account the empirical results from cognitive psychology, cognitive ethology and neurosciences, the lectures deal with the biocognitive foundation of language and how it is relevant for the study of human nature.
