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 the museums by students based on individual research. Numerous inspections are planned in the Roman museums.

This course introduces students to key concepts of legal anthropology to comprehend the relationship between legal processes and other aspects of cultural, social and political life in the pluralistic context.
The intent of this course is a focus on themes regarding the complexity and the challenges posed in law by the increasing cultural diversity within our societies. Students will be stimulated to reflect on the implications of an anthropological understanding of the law and different legal traditions as investigated by anthropologists and to try to use these notions in concrete situations.

During the course, a reconstruction of the history of international migration in contemporary times is proposed, analyzing in particular the peculiarities of the Italian case. The periodization embraces the historical phase between the second half of the 19th century and the present day.
The history of migration in Italy in the contemporary age is read in the light of the connections with the economic, social and cultural dimensions of the history of contemporary Italy. Special attention is given to the topic of migration policies.
In the perspective of deepening the links between the history of Italian migrations and the evolution of international cooperation paths, special consideration is given to the history and evolution of the social actors who played a leading role in the great seasons of development of mass migrations: national and international institutions, social organizations, movements, associations, trade unions. At the same time, the environmental perspective is emphasized, identifying the impact of mobility on Italian territorial contexts at the environmental level in both places of departure and places of destination.

Never as in recent years has Europe been at the center of public debate: for some the only lifeline against nationalisms and wars, for others the ultimate cause of all our problems and malaises, especially from an economic point of view. In the political discourse Europe is automatically identified with the community bodies; nevertheless, it is a concept which possesses an extraordinary historical depth, the knowledge of which imposes itself as an essential necessity in order to correctly insert the events of our continent in the framework of world history and also in order to avoid falling into clichés and generalizations deriving from the flattening of the perspective solely on the events of the last seventy years. The course aims to analyze the evolution of the notion of "Europe" over the very long period, by deepening on the one hand its role in global history (colonialism, decolonization, etc.), on the other the conceptualization of its internal articulations, and in particular the Mediterranean sector, traditional and fundamental area of ​​contact, communication and clash with the Arab and Ottoman world.

In contemporary societies the arts affect the public discourse, becoming agency of social and cultural meanings, laboratory for the civil society, space and place for shaping the collective and public memories of controversial events, arenas where gender identities, ethnicity and social classes are socially constructed.
The first part of the course will aim at studying artistic production and politics of cultural consumption. It will focus on the following topics: theories of the "author's death", theories of reception, art as social practice, the institutional definitions of artistic value, cases of " non-recognition " and plagiarism, politics of genius, canonization and practices of social exclusion, theories of cultural capital, relationship between art and advertising, the role of social media in the production of artistic reputations and in relation to the "arts worlds", artistic intermediation processes and their social effects.
The second part will concern art institutions. It will address the following topics: art and the public sphere, monuments in the urban space, art as memory technology, cultural consumption of the past and the role of the cinema in shaping the public memory of very contested pasts, sociology of museums and politics of museum exhibition, representation of ethnic identities in museums, museums as technology of gender, multimedia arts.

the politics of technology

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 is created according to projects, objectives and 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 is a normative discipine (different from science). Its object is not the study of how things are in the world. it imposes an organization on the world in order for its devices to work correctly. It proposes and orders a regulation for society and it is in need that society imposes a regulation on its implementation: not all that it is feasible technically it is allowed.

We will explore the advent of fossil fuels with the emergence of the age of coal, the shift to hydrocarbons, and the most recent trend towards renewable energy sources. This will be done by analysing great power politics, political and economic debates on energy, the expansion of fordism and consumerism, the role of multinational oil companies, the pressures for decolonization and the emergence of the environmentalist debate from the 1970s up to the more recent debate on the "Anthropocene" and "decarbonization".

Questions and concepts such as “resource curse”, “conservationism”, “Dutch disease”, “limits of growth”, "peak oil", "sustainable development", "extractivism", will be discussed and informed by the relevant literature (and possibly archival material), and with the help images and documentaries.

This course is taught in English.

Performance art in Rome: time, places and presences of performance in Rome
The course aims to investigate the history of performance art in Rome in the period from the late 1960s through the 1970s, through the analysis of public and private spaces, the responses of artists to an ever-changing and changing situation, and critical reactions to new forms of expression. The usual effervescence of Fabio Sargentini’s L’Attico gallery and the Incontri Internazionali d’Arte association is enriched and supported by a myriad of permanent or ephemeral initiatives, linked to exhibition events or alternatives to the art system, often traversed by recurring presences.
The historical investigation of performance evidently poses problems of sources and method that will be the focus of a specific in-depth discussion.

An historical perspective on religions must take into consideration their multi-layered presence on the territory and must be able to analyze dynamics and strategies: since 2007 more than a half of the global population lives in urban areas and cities have become the privileged space of contestations, conflicts, negotiation of interests, creation of symbolic and capital resources concerning religions. In cities innovations, waves and tendencies concerning beliefs and religious practices are produced and reproduced. Italian and European cities were the space of creation and elaboration of social fears; in the last decades fear was related to economy, the environment, the pandemic crisis.
The fear, almost touchable in the streets of the cities, is related to religion in a double way; from one side every religion was born from the fear of the loose/impossibility of controlling life, death, illness, pain, the end and often it is an answer to this feeling and to worries
From the other side, religions produce fear, in the case of violence which arises in their name but also due to collective imaginaries which feed clichés, stereotypes, in particular towards minorities.
This course offers some historical examples of religion such as an antidote to fear and religion such as virus of fear, in particular related to the topic of social fear and religious answers, fears which were provoked by ecological crisis, the wars or sublimated by religious fundamentalisms (on line – at school in prisons and in religious places)

In contemporary societies the arts affect the public discourse, becoming agency of social and cultural meanings, laboratory for the civil society, space and place for shaping the collective and public memories of controversial events, arenas where gender identities, ethnicity and social classes are socially constructed.
The first part of the course will aim at studying artistic production and politics of cultural consumption. It will focus on the following topics: theories of the "author's death", theories of reception, art as social practice, the institutional definitions of artistic value, cases of " non-recognition " and plagiarism, politics of genius, canonization and practices of social exclusion, theories of cultural capital, relationship between art and advertising, the role of social media in the production of artistic reputations and in relation to the "arts worlds", artistic intermediation processes and their social effects.
The second part will concern art institutions. It will address the following topics: art and the public sphere, monuments in the urban space, art as memory technology, cultural consumption of the past and the role of the cinema in shaping the public memory of very contested pasts, sociology of museums and politics of museum exhibition, representation of ethnic identities in museums, museums as technology of gender, multimedia arts.

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.

The aim of the course is to explore, in an interdisciplinary perspective, the relationship between Ungaretti and the European literature. The analysis of his intellectual function, will be done on the poetry but also on literary criticism, essays, teaching activities, correspondence and collaborations with magazines and newspapers.
The course will have a seminary structure and the lessons will be organized so as to facilitate the discussion.

Exam book:

M. Venturini, Il terzo tempo. Sull'Ungaretti intellettuale negli anni Cinquanta e Sessanta, Bulzoni (in corso di stampa)

The seminar addresses issues related to the territory and the city. The story of cardinal concepts such as cities, communities, habitats, nature, territory, landscapes, and projects will be presented, discussed and updated, from different perspectives: philosophy, art, political theory, sociology, history, geography, architecture, law, economics, political ecology, communication.

A selection of readings will be suggested. Eventually students will have to write and present a short paper.

During the course, a reconstruction of the history of international migration in contemporary times is proposed, analyzing in particular the peculiarities of the Italian case. The periodization embraces the historical phase between the second half of the 19th century and the present day.
The history of migration in Italy in the contemporary age is read in the light of the connections with the economic, social and cultural dimensions of the history of contemporary Italy. Special attention is given to the topic of migration policies.
In the perspective of deepening the links between the history of Italian migrations and the evolution of international cooperation paths, special consideration is given to the history and evolution of the social actors who played a leading role in the great seasons of development of mass migrations: national and international institutions, social organizations, movements, associations, trade unions. At the same time, the environmental perspective is emphasized, identifying the impact of mobility on Italian territorial contexts at the environmental level in both places of departure and places of destination.

Environmental policy and sustainability. The course presents a brief overview of the main schools of thought in environmental matters, following their development especially in recent decades. The course discusses then about methods and tools of environmental policy, illustrates the geography of environmental resources and examines the role of the actors in environmental policy at different geographical scales, from global to local. The problems are also analyzed through some case studies related to different parts of the world. There will be lectures and eventual workshops/excursion.

From novel to screen. Literature and TV in the New Millennium
The aim of the course is to explore, in an interdisciplinary perspective, the relationship between literature and tv from in the new Millennium. In this period there was the diffusion of new technologies that have revolutionized literary communication systems.

Two works by two of the following authors: Moravia, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Umberto Eco, Dacia Maraini, Melania Mazzucco, Sandro Veronesi, Antonio Scurati, Francesco Piccolo, Nicola Lagioia, Oriana Fallaci, Roberto Saviano, Elena Ferrante, Niccolò Ammaniti.

We will explore the advent of fossil fuels with the emergence of the age of coal, the shift to hydrocarbons, and the most recent trend towards renewable energy sources. This will be done by analysing great power politics, political and economic debates on energy, the expansion of fordism and consumerism, the role of multinational oil companies, the pressures for decolonization and the emergence of the environmentalist debate from the 1970s up to the more recent debate on the "Anthropocene" and "decarbonization".

Questions and concepts such as “resource curse”, “conservationism”, “Dutch disease”, “limits of growth”, "peak oil", "sustainable development", "extractivism", will be discussed and informed by the relevant literature (and possibly archival material), and with the help images and documentaries.

This course is taught in English.

The course deals with the analysis of images. It refers specifically to the social factors intervening in the construction of their meanings. The first part of the course will provide analytical and methodological tolls to the students in order to analyse the images and, more specifically, the photos (referring above all to the theories of Roland Barthes and Susan Sontag). The second part of the course will focus on the social and public use of images, especially in relation to photos of controversial pasts (wars, natural disasters, violence, terroristic attacks). The course will be divided into five teaching modules: (1) What is photography? Theories and methods; (2) The “stories” of photography, the photographs of history; (3) Gender and race in advertising image ; (4) Photography and memory from analog to digital; (5) Visual communication and violence. The course will have an interactive structure, in which students will be asked to actively participate through short presentations, the sharing of images, and the collective interpretation of the visual materials presented by the teacher.

The exam will be based on the reading of the following texts:
1) Roland Barthes (1979), La camera chiara. Nota sulla fotografia, Piccola Biblioteca Einaudi, Torino.
2) Roland Barthes (1964), Image-Music-Text. (Translation 1977), capitolo II, “The Rhetoric of the Image”. S. Heath, ed. London: Fontana, pp. 32-51.

All materials are available on the website http://filosofiacomunicazionespettacolo.uniroma3.it on the teacher's personal page.

The course is divided in two parts: the first one is a general introduction on the basic concepts of public communication. The included topics are: the Forms and Devices of Public Communication, the Relationship between Power and Communication, the Features of the Public Space as a space of discussion articulated on Global Communication Networks. The first part will mainly include frontal lessons supported by PowerPoint presentations.
The second part of the course explores the relationship between public communication and the media. The media will be approached as spaces of negotiation between civil society and the institutions, in which public knowledge is created and reproduced. In particular, the role of the ecosystem of digital platforms and social media will be addressed. Interested students can take part in laboratory activities focused on case studies on how old and new media platforms contribute to the narration of public and political phenomena.

the politics of technology

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 is created according to projects, objectives and 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 is a normative discipine (different from science). Its object is not the study of how things are in the world. it imposes an organization on the world in order for its devices to work correctly. It proposes and orders a regulation for society and it is in need that society imposes a regulation on its implementation: not all that it is feasible technically it is allowed.

Performance art in Rome: time, places and presences of performance in Rome
The course aims to investigate the history of performance art in Rome in the period from the late 1960s through the 1970s, through the analysis of public and private spaces, the responses of artists to an ever-changing and changing situation, and critical reactions to new forms of expression. The usual effervescence of Fabio Sargentini’s L’Attico gallery and the Incontri Internazionali d’Arte association is enriched and supported by a myriad of permanent or ephemeral initiatives, linked to exhibition events or alternatives to the art system, often traversed by recurring presences.
The historical investigation of performance evidently poses problems of sources and method that will be the focus of a specific in-depth discussion.

Course program

The topics dealt with in the Course are:

▪ Sustainability in its historical development and in different contexts, from the internal/organizational to the external/social one up to the SDGs, i.e. from the sustainability of a role (in terms of values, knowledge, skills and soft skills) within an organizational contest to the sustainability of an organizational (cultural) identity, both at a strategic and a relational (communication) level (mission, vision, values and the ways of sharing them within a given context), up to the concept of sustainable society.

▪ Cultural (self-)awareness as a self-developmental, organizational and community awareness process to be implemented through:

a) a growing consciousness of one’s own cultural identity;
b) the acquisition of leadership and management skills, to be built and constantly upgraded;
c) the setting up of activities and policies to set up educational/cultural projects aiming at social cohesion and inclusiveness, at different forms of cultural entrepreneurship, at innovative approaches to curatorial practices;

▪ the role of content marketing and content co-creation in organizational strategies, and the ability of building sustainable, value(s)-based models of content management with the engagement of different audiences and communities.


The Course methodology is based on discussions about readings and presentations with an active participation of students. The main project of the Course will be developed with the action research methodology: students will carry out research activities on a theme assigned by a cultural institution based in Rome in which to develop a cultural leadership approach with reference to the Goals and Targets of the 2030 Agenda. In this perspective, the cultural awareness of each participant to the Course will be integrated in the individual and common reflection.

The history of our language can also be read and studied using dictionaries which have described and codified it. The module focuses on the diachronic and synchronic study of the Italian lexicon through lexicography. After having clarified the basic terms of the discipline, we will retrace the history of dictionaries in Italy, from its origins to the present day; typologies and compositional structures of some important dictionaries will be examined.

An historical perspective on religions must take into consideration their multi-layered presence on the territory and must be able to analyze dynamics and strategies: since 2007 more than a half of the global population lives in urban areas and cities have become the privileged space of contestations, conflicts, negotiation of interests, creation of symbolic and capital resources concerning religions. In cities innovations, waves and tendencies concerning beliefs and religious practices are produced and reproduced. Italian and European cities were the space of creation and elaboration of social fears; in the last decades fear was related to economy, the environment, the pandemic crisis.
The fear, almost touchable in the streets of the cities, is related to religion in a double way; from one side every religion was born from the fear of the loose/impossibility of controlling life, death, illness, pain, the end and often it is an answer to this feeling and to worries
From the other side, religions produce fear, in the case of violence which arises in their name but also due to collective imaginaries which feed clichés, stereotypes, in particular towards minorities.
This course offers some historical examples of religion such as an antidote to fear and religion such as virus of fear, in particular related to the topic of social fear and religious answers, fears which were provoked by ecological crisis, the wars or sublimated by religious fundamentalisms (on line – at school in prisons and in religious places)

Students are provided with a document that lists for each lesson topic which textbook and which chapters are most relevant for the study, and for

The war between literature and journalism.

The course is divided into two parts. The first part is an introduction: we will scrutiny some forms of journalistic representation of the society (such as investigation, reportage, documentary, literary description, cross-media narrative) with particular attention to the analysis of the style of writing. The second part is a case study: it will be focused on the representation of the war by some Italian writers / journalists of the late twentieth century. In particular, Goffredo Parise, Luca Rastello and Alessandro Leogrande.

The course (second semester) is a reading, discussion and research seminar on the work of a contemporary Italian photographer.
Teaching assistant: Adele Milozzi.

Weekly readings, including essays in Italian and English, will be announced shortly. For both regular and “non attending” students, the readings will be available at the art history library “Luigi Grassi” (Piazza della Repubblica 10) and via Moodle.

Bibliographic research for the final paper is part of the required work and will be evaluated as such.

Travel’s reports of the past are a preferred source for the construction of geographical thought and culture. Particularly between the late Middle Ages and Modern Age, travel’s relations allows to retrace the complex process of widening of Europeans’ geographical horizon. In western society the relationship between geography and travel’s reports has changed over the centuries, to the need to sort and reprocess the information gathered, to create a geographical knowledge built on valid rules, correlations between phenomena and rational criteria for classification. During the course will be analyzed practices of travel, travelers and travel’s reports, in their various types. Will also be considered some examples of travel’s reports that, throughout history, have marked the collective imagination and the construction of the world’s modern image. Testimony of travel’s experiences, travel literature has become ever more an instrument of knowledge of the territory and of human communities, through understanding the other and the elsewhere, but also the culture that looks at the other and at the space, for as this was and still is organized on the basis of many human needs (exploration, knowledge, tourism, etc.).

The exam program will be valid from the 2023 summer session.
