Lombard Southern Italy. Power and Society, in the Ninth-Eleventh Centuries (part one, 6 cfu).
The course aims to analyze, with direct use of sources and historiography, the relationships between princely powers and society in the Lombard Southern Italy, from the principality of Arechi (774) to the eleventh century: princes and aristocracy, economic bases of princely power, relations between city and territory.

The course, which aims to provide students who already have a three-year degree with tools and methods to tackle specific research projects in the field of European Prehistory and Protohistory, has as its topic Places of worship, symbols and ritual activities in Europe between VI and I millennium BC
The reconstruction of ritual activities for periods for which we have no historical-literary sources has always been an extraordinary challenge for scholars of prehistory and protohistory.
After a series of lessons on the history of studies and the evolution of archaeological and anthropological theories on the subject, we will try to outline a panorama of the ritual and symbolic aspects of our continent between the ancient Neolithic and the first millennium BC.
At the same time we will try to work with the students on three different themes:
- the cultic use of natural cavities
- the open-air places of worship and, more generally, offerings of objects (overall weapons and ornaments) in water, on mountain peaks, in the form of bronze hoards or as spoils of war
- the built structures used for ritual activities in prehistory and protohistory,
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 2022-2023 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.

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.

Early medieval sculpture in Rome: from fragment to context
In Rome, between the 8th and 9th centuries, decorative models and working practices spread that, in the same centuries and to varying degrees, characterised the architectural decoration and sculpted furnishings of cult buildings in central and northern Italy and beyond. Early medieval sculpture is a territorially extensive field of research, with uncertain chronological limits and difficult to "frame" due to the fragmentary nature of the sculptures that have come down to us out of context.
From a look at the gradual abandonment of the sculptural practice of ancient tradition; through an in-depth study of techniques and some early medieval outcomes in sculpture, the course proposes a reflection on the methods and strategies employed in the study of so-called "interwoven" sculpture. Sources and historiography; style, technique and colour; symbols and/or ornamentation; forms and functions; finally, description and documentation will be the topics of the module: a path in stages to experience how each object of study imposes on the researcher the "critical" construction of his or her instruments of investigation.

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 epistular genre 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 Latin epistolary texts in prose (from Cicero, Seneca, Pliny the Younger, Fronto, Symmachus, Sidonius Apollinaris) and in poetry (Claudian).

The major aim of the course is to present students with a critical assessment of different theories of restoration, by considering that all theories are linked to a particular moment in history and, above all, that contemporary theory of restoration – including the charters for conservation, programmes and the principles guiding the preservation – has to be considered as a possible interpretation of the past and not as a definitive scientific achievement.
Lectures are focused on the history of restoration from the late eighteenth century until the twentieth century in Italy and in Europe. Many examples from Rome are used to highlight the different ways of interpretation and actualization of the historical heritage.
The students will work on the construction of a type of “observatory” of contemporary restoration, through analysis and critical assessment of ongoing work on architectural heritage in Rome.

The adopted texts are selected by the students and agreed with the teacher within the list of the reference bibliography

Pierfrancesco PORENA, Latin Epigraphy (Master degree) (36 hours - 6 ECTS)
DISCIPLINARY FIELD: L-ANT/03

“From Turia to Paulina. Latin inscriptions about Roman women. Voices of Roman women in Latin inscriptions”.

Roman women emerge in our sources mainly through the point of view of men, who attempted to standardise them in Latin and Greek learned literature in prose and verse, and in legal literature. But the communicative density of Latin inscriptions conceals and reveals, as in a game of the said and unsaid, the richness of the Roman female universe. An immense and long-lived universe, populated by aristocrats, Roman citizens and foreigners, slaves and freedwomen, children, wives, mothers, daughters, sisters, old women and widows. Beneath a supeficially immobile reality, epigraphy whispers instincts and draws asymmetrical sensibilities in perpetual tension between submission to fathers, the inevitable reproductive duty, and the evolution of a society in which even men were prisoners of unquestionable models.

Course title 2022-2023
The Garden of Eden, earthly paradise and/or heavenly paradise.
Semester: I, 6 CFU
In the Genesis 2: 8-16 account, the Lord creates a garden in Eden, where every fruit tree flourishes and where both the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil are found. We all know how the story later ended, how Adam and Eve were banished from this earthly paradise for disobeying the divine command and eating the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge. Eden, however, continued to remain firmly rooted in the late antique and medieval imagination as a place of delights, located sometimes in a remote and inaccessible location on earth, sometimes in the heavens, either clearly distinct from the heavenly paradise or instead confused with the latter, depending on the different conceptions of the authors who spoke about it. The course, through the analysis of a variety of sources (educational trips are also planned) and the presentation of some significant historiographical approaches to the theme, seeks to explore the rich symbolism of the Garden of Eden elaborated in the ancient and early medieval Christian world and its reflection in monastic spirituality, as well as in Christian iconography and in the architecture of sacred spaces.

The course aims to address the study of the characteristics of Latin and Greek manuscripts, with particular regard to their value for philological and historical-cultural studies. In this regard, both the external characteristics of manuscripts will be examined (material techniques for the preparation of the book as a physical object, methods and tools for its preparation, with regard to the professional figures involved in the production process), and the cultural panorama of the times and places of origin of manuscript books. Therefore, each aspect will be illustrated by choosing a reference manuscript witness.
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. L. Agati, Il libro manoscritto da Oriente a Occidente. Per una codicologia comparata, L’Erma di Bretschneider, Roma 2009 (a selection of chapters);
• 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 dedicated to the transformations taking place within the modern public and political scene and to the most relevant theoretical contributions in political communication. The main areas of transformation of Italian political communication and its actors and the evolution of electoral campaigns will be examined.
The second part, dedicated to visual politics, analyzes the history and evolution of political graphics and aesthetic codes of Italian political propaganda from 1945 to today and the contacts and influences with the main artistic currents. This part includes the analysis and study of new aesthetics related to the spread of digital communication and the use of social networks.
An integral part of the course is the viewing and analysis of a wide range of original audiovisual propaganda materials such as films, commercials, television programs, posters, and web cards, which constitute teaching materials and the subject of examination.
In the case of electoral campaigns during the teaching period, it is possible to activate their monitoring by involving the students actively and directly.

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 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.
