In recent decades, the theme of local development has assumed a central role in the development debate. The lessons will present the concepts and methods of local development, understood not only as a growth process for an aggregation of local companies, but as a diversified territorial development process based on SELF-ORGANIZING CAPACITY OF LOCAL NETWORKS OF ACTORS and on the sustainable exploitation of tangible and intangible resources available in a certain territory, including the social and cultural spheres.
The high expectations of the early days on the potential of local development has recently been followed by a less optimistic phase. Today's challenge is to avoid the trap of localism and rethink local development even in new terms, to give cities and territories the ability to respond to economic, social and environmental pressures of the globalized world. Special attention will also be given to the "NEW" FORMS OF TOURIST DEVELOPMENT.Some case studies in Italy not only will help to deepen some of the addressed issues.
There will be lectures, eventual seminars and an educational excursion.

2) Elena DELL'AGNESE, 2018, "Bon voyage, Per una geografia critica del turismo", UTET (only the following chapters: 1, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14).

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, an excursion and eventual workshops.

Codicology

The course aims to present the features of Greeks and Latin manuscripts, especially those of some relevance for the philological, historical and cultural studies. We will take into consideration external characteristics of manuscripts (such as techniques, means and tools used for arranging a book and the professional figures involved in the process of production) and the cultural background (that is places and times of origin) of manuscript books. A few lessons will be specifically dedicated to the issue of the description of late antique manuscripts which are preserved as fragments.
The course includes an examination of reproducted manuscripts (on paper and on electronic supports) and the examination of manuscripts and other materials in 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:

Thinking within the Revolution

The course will investigate the relationships between thinking and social, political transformation processes. In fact, on the one hand, thinking and conceputalisation go beyond the contingency of action and the immediate present time, while on the other hand, there are peculiar forms of social change that are creating new thinking patterns.

The course will consider five different revolutionary periods - English Revolution (1640-1651); French Revolution; 1848 and the Paris Commune (1871); Russian Revolutions (1905 and 1917); the long '68 - through a selected literature relating to each period.

The laboratory includes the alternation of frontal lessons and exercises to get theoretical knowledge on the evolution of the concept of cultural heritage and skills on digital and IT tools, including GIS, for the analysis and use of geo-historical sources and cultural heritage themself. During the course, students will be invited to carry out research autonomously, individually or in groups, on a subject agreed, around which will have to demonstrate the ability to put into practice the skills acquired and exposing the results produced.
Basic geographic and computer skills are required (for this purpose it is expected an initial test for admission), analytical skills and ability on working individually and in groups. It also requires studying outside the hours of classroom on working papers provided during the course. In -course tests are planned and students will provide of a paper that will be evaluated in a final examination, which is essential for the acquisition of credits.

Working papers provided during the course

First module (6 ECTS)

The first module intends to address the main critical and problematic nodes of early modern history in a perspective aimed at enucleating original characters and identity processes of the European continent. Particular attention will be devoted to the philosophical-political and political-institutional peculiarities that emerged in European states between the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 19th century. From the English Revolutions of the 17th Century and later with the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, parliamentary democracy, secularization, religious tolerance and the recognition of human rights became traditionally not only the key ideas of the definition of "being European", but real universal guiding principles to export and, if necessary, to impose on the rest of the globe. But can we really coincide the advent of modernity with the beginnings of the process of secularization? What was the relationship between Christian churches and modernity? What was the relationship between Catholic Church and human rights since the Lumières century?

Second module (6 ECTS)

According to the definition of the League of Nations, slavery is “the status or condition of a person over whom any or all of the powers attaching to the right of ownership are exercised” (September 25th 1926). Slavery had an enormous importance and impact in the early modern age, but compared to the Atlantic tract, only more recently Mediterranean slavery has received the attention it deserves from historiography. Reductions in slavery are one of the (dramatic) consequences of the stormy relations between Christian states and the Ottoman empire, with repercussions of great importance not only from a social and economic point of view, but also from a religious point of view. The second part of the course intends to focus on the consistent and significant presence of slaves, often of Islamic religion, in the Italian states of the early modern age, as well as the policies posed in this regard to religious minorities moving in the Mediterranean area, such as the moriscos, expelled from the Iberian peninsula since 1609. For the Christian European countries, the Turk is the natural catalyst of an inveterate hatred, an obscure entity ready to destroy their culture and their religion. Yet, starting from the Renaissance, between the European sovereigns (and the Pope, among them) and their archenemies also exchanges and calls for collaboration happened, which provide evidence of the permeability of the borderline between two apparently irreconcilable worlds.

There is at least one scheduled Independent Reading Week during term time, i.e. no classes in that week.

Taking as its focus the early modern period in Europe (1450–1750), this course is structured around one of the field’s most important areas of research in recent decades, cultural history. Applied in its broadest sense, it will provide not only the lens through which we view the period itself, but also our starting point for a critical analysis of its historiography, with a particular focus on classic studies from the Anglophone world that formed the foundations of the field. Our study will be grouped around three key themes that lend themselves best to a cultural-historical analysis: the so-called Renaissance, Reformations, and Age of Discovery. Case studies, primary documents, site visits in Rome, and critical readings of select secondary studies will help us explore the cultural history of the early-modern past, as well as problematize it through assessing the interpretations that have been the most influential in shaping the discipline.
The course will be relevant, not just to those students who are undertaking studies in the pre-modern period, but also to those who wish to broaden their understanding of key historical approaches and methodologies that underpin historical research in any field, especially from the Anglophone world.

Readings from a variety of primary and secondary sources are set for this course.

All readings are available at the beginning of the course, or on request. They are downloadable in pdf format. For further details and access to the readings, please contact the Lecturer.

A recommended key text that provides useful background to the period (and serves as required reading in a number of classes), is: Merry E. Wiesner-Hanks, Early Modern Europe, 1450–1789, 2nd ed. (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2013).

Unit I - 36 hours - 6 cfu.

In recent decades, the theme of local development has assumed a central role in the development debate. The lessons will present the concepts and methods of local development, understood not only as a growth process for an aggregation of local companies, but as a diversified territorial development process based on SELF-ORGANIZING CAPACITY OF LOCAL NETWORKS OF ACTORS and on the sustainable exploitation of tangible and intangible resources available in a certain territory, including the social and cultural spheres.
The high expectations of the early days on the potential of local development has recently been followed by a less optimistic phase. Today's challenge is to avoid the trap of localism and rethink local development even in new terms, to give cities and territories the ability to respond to economic, social and environmental pressures of the globalized world. Special attention will also be given to the "NEW" FORMS OF TOURIST DEVELOPMENT.Some case studies in Italy not only will help to deepen some of the addressed issues.
There will be lectures, eventual seminars and an educational excursion.

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, an excursion and eventual workshops.

In -course tests are planned and students will provide of a paper that will be evaluated in a final examination, which is essential for the acquisition of credits.

Working papers provided during the course

First module (6 ECTS)

The first module intends to address the main critical and problematic nodes of early modern history in a perspective aimed at enucleating original characters and identity processes of the European continent. Particular attention will be devoted to the philosophical-political and political-institutional peculiarities that emerged in European states between the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 19th century. From the English Revolutions of the 17th Century and later with the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, parliamentary democracy, secularization, religious tolerance and the recognition of human rights became traditionally not only the key ideas of the definition of "being European", but real universal guiding principles to export and, if necessary, to impose on the rest of the globe. But can we really coincide the advent of modernity with the beginnings of the process of secularization? What was the relationship between Christian churches and modernity? What was the relationship between Catholic Church and human rights since the Lumières century?

Second module (6 ECTS)

According to the definition of the League of Nations, slavery is “the status or condition of a person over whom any or all of the powers attaching to the right of ownership are exercised” (September 25th 1926). Slavery had an enormous importance and impact in the early modern age, but compared to the Atlantic tract, only more recently Mediterranean slavery has received the attention it deserves from historiography. Reductions in slavery are one of the (dramatic) consequences of the stormy relations between Christian states and the Ottoman empire, with repercussions of great importance not only from a social and economic point of view, but also from a religious point of view. The second part of the course intends to focus on the consistent and significant presence of slaves, often of Islamic religion, in the Italian states of the early modern age, as well as the policies posed in this regard to religious minorities moving in the Mediterranean area, such as the moriscos, expelled from the Iberian peninsula since 1609. For the Christian European countries, the Turk is the natural catalyst of an inveterate hatred, an obscure entity ready to destroy their culture and their religion. Yet, starting from the Renaissance, between the European sovereigns (and the Pope, among them) and their archenemies also exchanges and calls for collaboration happened, which provide evidence of the permeability of the borderline between two apparently irreconcilable worlds.

Women in Modern Christianity

Starting from the historiographical discussion on the relationship between the feminine and the sacred, the course intends to analyse models and experiences of the presence and role of women within Christian Churches, ecclesiastical institutions and religious life, highlighting their paths and their evolution in the last two centuries in conjunction with the epochal changes in society, customs and culture that have involved women and their social, cultural and religious status. Sources produced by women themselves or concerning them and historiographical debates on the presence and role of women in life and management of Churches and in the related spirituality will be taken into consideration.

Taking as its focus the early modern period in Europe (1450–1750), this course is structured around one of the field’s most important areas of research in recent decades, cultural history. Applied in its broadest sense, it will provide not only the lens through which we view the period itself, but also our starting point for a critical analysis of its historiography, with a particular focus on classic studies from the Anglophone world that formed the foundations of the field. Our study will be grouped around three key themes that lend themselves best to a cultural-historical analysis: the so-called Renaissance, Reformations, and Age of Discovery. Case studies, primary documents, site visits in Rome, and critical readings of select secondary studies will help us explore the cultural history of the early-modern past, as well as problematize it through assessing the interpretations that have been the most influential in shaping the discipline.
The course will be relevant, not just to those students who are undertaking studies in the pre-modern period, but also to those who wish to broaden their understanding of key historical approaches and methodologies that underpin historical research in any field, especially from the Anglophone world.

Readings from a variety of primary and secondary sources are set for this course.

All readings are available at the beginning of the course, or on request. They are downloadable in pdf format. For further details and access to the readings, please contact the Lecturer.

A recommended key text that provides useful background to the period (and serves as required reading in a number of classes), is: Merry E. Wiesner-Hanks, Early Modern Europe, 1450–1789, 2nd ed. (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2013).

In recent decades, the theme of local development has assumed a central role in the development debate. The lessons will present the concepts and methods of local development, understood not only as a growth process for an aggregation of local companies, but as a diversified territorial development process based on SELF-ORGANIZING CAPACITY OF LOCAL NETWORKS OF ACTORS and on the sustainable exploitation of tangible and intangible resources available in a certain territory, including the social and cultural spheres.
The high expectations of the early days on the potential of local development has recently been followed by a less optimistic phase. Today's challenge is to avoid the trap of localism and rethink local development even in new terms, to give cities and territories the ability to respond to economic, social and environmental pressures of the globalized world. Special attention will also be given to the "NEW" FORMS OF TOURIST DEVELOPMENT.Some case studies in Italy not only will help to deepen some of the addressed issues.
There will be lectures, eventual seminars and an educational excursion.

Le modificazioni del paesaggio, sia quello insediativo sia quello agrario, nel Medioevo, hanno una stretta relazione con le forme e le modalità adottate dalle comunità nell'organizzare la loro presenza nell'ambiente. Le trasformazioni dell'ambiente nel lungo periodo medievale (dal V al XV secolo), saranno esaminati in forma diacronica con particolare attenzione alla costruzione dell'ambiente e dell'habitat che per certi aspetti è ancora oggi la base dell'insediamento.

First module (6 ECTS)

The first module intends to address the main critical and problematic nodes of early modern history in a perspective aimed at enucleating original characters and identity processes of the European continent. Particular attention will be devoted to the philosophical-political and political-institutional peculiarities that emerged in European states between the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 19th century. From the English Revolutions of the 17th Century and later with the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, parliamentary democracy, secularization, religious tolerance and the recognition of human rights became traditionally not only the key ideas of the definition of "being European", but real universal guiding principles to export and, if necessary, to impose on the rest of the globe. But can we really coincide the advent of modernity with the beginnings of the process of secularization? What was the relationship between Christian churches and modernity? What was the relationship between Catholic Church and human rights since the Lumières century?

Second module (6 ECTS)

According to the definition of the League of Nations, slavery is “the status or condition of a person over whom any or all of the powers attaching to the right of ownership are exercised” (September 25th 1926). Slavery had an enormous importance and impact in the early modern age, but compared to the Atlantic tract, only more recently Mediterranean slavery has received the attention it deserves from historiography. Reductions in slavery are one of the (dramatic) consequences of the stormy relations between Christian states and the Ottoman empire, with repercussions of great importance not only from a social and economic point of view, but also from a religious point of view. The second part of the course intends to focus on the consistent and significant presence of slaves, often of Islamic religion, in the Italian states of the early modern age, as well as the policies posed in this regard to religious minorities moving in the Mediterranean area, such as the moriscos, expelled from the Iberian peninsula since 1609. For the Christian European countries, the Turk is the natural catalyst of an inveterate hatred, an obscure entity ready to destroy their culture and their religion. Yet, starting from the Renaissance, between the European sovereigns (and the Pope, among them) and their archenemies also exchanges and calls for collaboration happened, which provide evidence of the permeability of the borderline between two apparently irreconcilable worlds.

Women in Modern Christianity

Starting from the historiographical discussion on the relationship between the feminine and the sacred, the course intends to analyse models and experiences of the presence and role of women within Christian Churches, ecclesiastical institutions and religious life, highlighting their paths and their evolution in the last two centuries in conjunction with the epochal changes in society, customs and culture that have involved women and their social, cultural and religious status. Sources produced by women themselves or concerning them and historiographical debates on the presence and role of women in life and management of Churches and in the related spirituality will be taken into consideration.

Lectures are held on Mondays (2 hours) and Seminars are held on Tuesdays (2 hours). Classes are scheduled over 9 weeks of the semester. Site Visits around central Rome are scheduled in the 3 final weeks of the course in the place of of Lectures. There is at least one scheduled Independent Reading Week during term time, i.e. no classes in that week.

Taking as its focus the early modern period in Europe (1450–1750), this course is structured around one of the field’s most important areas of research in recent decades, cultural history. Applied in its broadest sense, it will provide not only the lens through which we view the period itself, but also our starting point for a critical analysis of its historiography, with a particular focus on classic studies from the Anglophone world that formed the foundations of the field. Our study will be grouped around three key themes that lend themselves best to a cultural-historical analysis: the so-called Renaissance, Reformations, and Age of Discovery. Case studies, primary documents, site visits in Rome, and critical readings of select secondary studies will help us explore the cultural history of the early-modern past, as well as problematize it through assessing the interpretations that have been the most influential in shaping the discipline.
The course will be relevant, not just to those students who are undertaking studies in the pre-modern period, but also to those who wish to broaden their understanding of key historical approaches and methodologies that underpin historical research in any field, especially from the Anglophone world.

Readings from a variety of primary and secondary sources are set for this course.

All readings are available at the beginning of the course, or on request. They are downloadable in pdf format. For further details and access to the readings, please contact the Lecturer.

A recommended key text that provides useful background to the period (and serves as required reading in a number of classes), is: Merry E. Wiesner-Hanks, Early Modern Europe, 1450–1789, 2nd ed. (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2013).

The program forecasts practical experiences with an interaction between the teachers and students. The lesson will begin from an general introduction, then will continue with a significant texts’ reading, analyzed in a comparative optics about monographic themes, selected each year.

The teaching material will be provided during laboratory meetings.

In recent decades, the theme of local development has assumed a central role in the development debate. The lessons will present the concepts and methods of local development, understood not only as a growth process for an aggregation of local companies, but as a diversified territorial development process based on SELF-ORGANIZING CAPACITY OF LOCAL NETWORKS OF ACTORS and on the sustainable exploitation of tangible and intangible resources available in a certain territory, including the social and cultural spheres.
The high expectations of the early days on the potential of local development has recently been followed by a less optimistic phase. Today's challenge is to avoid the trap of localism and rethink local development even in new terms, to give cities and territories the ability to respond to economic, social and environmental pressures of the globalized world. Special attention will also be given to the "NEW" FORMS OF TOURIST DEVELOPMENT.Some case studies in Italy not only will help to deepen some of the addressed issues.
There will be lectures, eventual seminars and an educational excursion.

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, an excursion and eventual workshops.

Codicology

The course aims to present the features of Greeks and Latin manuscripts, especially those of some relevance for the philological, historical and cultural studies. We will take into consideration external characteristics of manuscripts (such as techniques, means and tools used for arranging a book and the professional figures involved in the process of production) and the cultural background (that is places and times of origin) of manuscript books. A few lessons will be specifically dedicated to the issue of the description of late antique manuscripts which are preserved as fragments.
The course includes an examination of reproducted manuscripts (on paper and on electronic supports) and the examination of manuscripts and other materials in 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:

Taking as its focus the early modern period in Europe (1450–1750), this course is structured around one of the field’s most important areas of research in recent decades, cultural history. Applied in its broadest sense, it will provide not only the lens through which we view the period itself, but also our starting point for a critical analysis of its historiography, with a particular focus on classic studies from the Anglophone world that formed the foundations of the field. Our study will be grouped around three key themes that lend themselves best to a cultural-historical analysis: the so-called Renaissance, Reformations, and Age of Discovery. Case studies, primary documents, site visits in Rome, and critical readings of select secondary studies will help us explore the cultural history of the early-modern past, as well as problematize it through assessing the interpretations that have been the most influential in shaping the discipline.
The course will be relevant, not just to those students who are undertaking studies in the pre-modern period, but also to those who wish to broaden their understanding of key historical approaches and methodologies that underpin historical research in any field, especially from the Anglophone world.

Readings from a variety of primary and secondary sources are set for this course.

All readings are available at the beginning of the course, or on request. They are downloadable in pdf format. For further details and access to the readings, please contact the Lecturer.

A recommended key text that provides useful background to the period (and serves as required reading in a number of classes), is: Merry E. Wiesner-Hanks, Early Modern Europe, 1450–1789, 2nd ed. (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2013).

Le modificazioni del paesaggio, sia quello insediativo sia quello agrario, nel Medioevo, hanno una stretta relazione con le forme e le modalità adottate dalle comunità nell'organizzare la loro presenza nell'ambiente. Le trasformazioni dell'ambiente nel lungo periodo medievale (dal V al XV secolo), saranno esaminati in forma diacronica con particolare attenzione alla costruzione dell'ambiente e dell'habitat che per certi aspetti è ancora oggi la base dell'insediamento.

First module (6 ECTS)

The first module intends to address the main critical and problematic nodes of early modern history in a perspective aimed at enucleating original characters and identity processes of the European continent. Particular attention will be devoted to the philosophical-political and political-institutional peculiarities that emerged in European states between the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 19th century. From the English Revolutions of the 17th Century and later with the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, parliamentary democracy, secularization, religious tolerance and the recognition of human rights became traditionally not only the key ideas of the definition of "being European", but real universal guiding principles to export and, if necessary, to impose on the rest of the globe. But can we really coincide the advent of modernity with the beginnings of the process of secularization? What was the relationship between Christian churches and modernity? What was the relationship between Catholic Church and human rights since the Lumières century?

Second module (6 ECTS)

According to the definition of the League of Nations, slavery is “the status or condition of a person over whom any or all of the powers attaching to the right of ownership are exercised” (September 25th 1926). Slavery had an enormous importance and impact in the early modern age, but compared to the Atlantic tract, only more recently Mediterranean slavery has received the attention it deserves from historiography. Reductions in slavery are one of the (dramatic) consequences of the stormy relations between Christian states and the Ottoman empire, with repercussions of great importance not only from a social and economic point of view, but also from a religious point of view. The second part of the course intends to focus on the consistent and significant presence of slaves, often of Islamic religion, in the Italian states of the early modern age, as well as the policies posed in this regard to religious minorities moving in the Mediterranean area, such as the moriscos, expelled from the Iberian peninsula since 1609. For the Christian European countries, the Turk is the natural catalyst of an inveterate hatred, an obscure entity ready to destroy their culture and their religion. Yet, starting from the Renaissance, between the European sovereigns (and the Pope, among them) and their archenemies also exchanges and calls for collaboration happened, which provide evidence of the permeability of the borderline between two apparently irreconcilable worlds.

Women in Modern Christianity

Starting from the historiographical discussion on the relationship between the feminine and the sacred, the course intends to analyse models and experiences of the presence and role of women within Christian Churches, ecclesiastical institutions and religious life, highlighting their paths and their evolution in the last two centuries in conjunction with the epochal changes in society, customs and culture that have involved women and their social, cultural and religious status. Sources produced by women themselves or concerning them and historiographical debates on the presence and role of women in life and management of Churches and in the related spirituality will be taken into consideration.
