HISTORY AND INSTITUTIONS OF AFRICA
(objectives)
The prime objective is an evolution and enlightenment in the conception of Africa’s history from the sixteenth century to the present day. A part of the course will concentrate on difficulties associated with recording the history of Africa and the continent, with particular emphasis on how to preserve its oral history. Along the same lines of thought: fundamental aspects of modern and contemporary history of Africa concentrating on the slave trade; the impact of Africa on European commerce; colonial domination; resistance within the colonies; and African independence and the emergence of independent states. The course hopes to give an overall view of the history of the African continent and the problems it faces today, placing it within its diverse historical contexts.

LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND INSTITUTIONS IN ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES
(objectives)
CANALE A-L The course is made up of three modules, which analyze English language, culture and literature, respectively. Upon completion of the course, students should achieve a critical awareness of the wide-ranging thematic influence of colonialism and imperialism on literature, with a specific focus on the fiction of E. M. Forster. The emphasis on cultural colonialism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of such theme to modern social and cultural issues. Finally, by promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.
Canale M-Z The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on Afrofuturism, an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The emphasis on Afrofuturism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of this phenomenon to modern social and cultural issues. By promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.

SYLLABUS 2016-2017
“E. M. FORSTER: TRANSITION, CULTURE AND COLONIAL IDEOLOGY”
1° Module: English Grammar: Learning the language The First module will focus on the consolidation of the main linguistic abilities – grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, speaking, use of English.
2° Module: E. M. Forster The second module will concentrate on the figure of the British writer E. M. Forster, whose role of intellectual and novelist between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries reveals interesting aspects on a social, historical and individual level. In Forster’s novels, the connection of the opposite sides of existence is not only a literary act, but also – and mainly – a personal and moral one, accomplished through the political rules of Liberalism. While admitting multiple grounds of analysis – such as the literary, historical, political and cultural ones – the course will focus on a close reading of texts and on the exploration of textual mechanisms which show the role of culture and literature in a historical and political context.
3° Module: A Passage to India The third module will focus on the reading of one of E. M. Forster’s novels, A Passage to India, and on its description of the colonial world, including the relationship between East and West. A Passage to India marks the conclusion of a long writing process on the part of the author whose narrative explorations are performed in his previous novels. In addition to the cultural merit of representing social and racial evolutions, the value of the novel also lays in its meditation on artistic and literary forms. In class, the main aspects of A Passage to India will be analysed in the context of their socio-political value and in the perspective of the different cultural systems involved.

The educational objectives are intended to provide: a) An analysis of the constitutional framework, regulatory institutions, the subjects and documents, as well as the influence of the European Union with the tools andchoices used by the public finance; b) A critical study with a specific attention to current issues: fiscal federalism, the obligation of a balanced budget, relations with the European Union, spending review.

On the other hand, to acquire a critical analysis on the issues, because the State accounting is a matter that escapes from the narrow space of the science books and that studies the function of planning, coordination and planning of public resources. It affects the economic and social life of our country.

The educational objectives are intended to provide:a) An analysis of the constitutional framework, regulatory institutions, the subjects and documents, as well as the influence of the European Union with the tools andchoices used by the public finance;b) A critical study with a specific attention to current issues: fiscal federalism, the obligation of a balanced budget, relations with the European Union, spending review.It will thus enable learners on the one hand, to learn the main elements of this subject, even for bankruptcy for the future challenges of their post-graduate course. On the other hand, to acquire a critical analysis on the issues, because the State accounting is a matter that escapes from the narrow space of the science books and that studies the function of planning, coordination and planning of public resources. It affects the economic and social life of our country.

THE SOCIOLOGY OF COMMUNICATION
(objectives)
The main aim of this course (“Geopolitics of code. Languages, power and identity in digital networks”) is to learn how digital languages and instruments influence our everyday life, and how they create new cultural representations and self-representations that transform and standardize our knowledge, but also our cultures and societies as a whole. Students will be introduced to the theoretical and practical aspects of the so-called "bias" of digital media, unmask their often invisible infrastructures, and learn to investigate how software and algorithms shape our consciousness. Through examples taken from different places and geopolitical contexts you will also see how it is possible to make a critical and alternative use of these tools. The first part will introduce you to the main thinkers and ideas of the sociology and history of media studies, from Harold Innis to Marshall McLhuan, from Vannevar Bush to Tim Berners-Lee. This will give you the necessary background to deal with the second part that will take place in a computer lab. Here you will explore practically how codes work, and you will learn how to build a ‘digital edition’ of a text using HTML and XML. At the end of the course you will have an idea not only about how digital media shape the present geopolitical scenario, but you will have developed some practical experience on how also all computing “codes” and applications imply and reflect social, political and cultural views and biases. For all these reasons students’ physical attendance, especially during practical sessions, is highly recommended.
