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 focuses on language pathologies, with particular attention to the deficits related to the discursive communication. Among the cases discusses, there are the communicative deficits characterizing pathologies such as autism, schizophrenia, and traumatic brain injury. In such cases, as well as in many neuropsychological and psychopathological disorders, the communicative impairments mainly concern the level of discourse and depend on deficits that primarily involve the cognitive dimension, rather than the linguistic one. Thus, the study of discourse disorders is particularly useful to investigate a more general question that is extremely relevant from a theoretical point of view: the relationships between language and cognition.

The course is scheduled for the second semester 2017-2018. Therefore, the following program is valid starting from the exam session of June-July 2018

This course will provide students with an introduction to some of the main topics in philosophy of mind. The course will be broken down into three parts. In the first part, we will look mostly at a few historical approaches to philosophy of mind. Starting with Descartes and a discussion of substance dualism, we will move on to Locke and Hume, and then behaviorism, identity theory, and the initial formulations of functionalism. In the second part, we will examine some contemporary approaches to the nature of mind, including current views on functionalism, Dennett’s intentional stance, Fodor’s language of thought, and eliminative materialism. With some of the standard approaches covered in the first two parts, we will turn in the third part to a more delimited issue: the problem of developing a naturalistic theory of self-consciousness, within which the themes of Freud’s criticism of the subject -- the themes of the unconscious, self-deception, and defense mechanisms -- can be read in a new light.

The course aims to develop non-native students’ linguistic skills, in order to take them toward an advanced level of proficiency. More complex morphological and syntactic aspects of the French sentence structure will be focused from a contrastive perspective. Students will improve their understanding and awareness of the language use, appealing to the logical relations used by native speakers. The analysis will move from a sentence-based grammar to the discourse level, through an introduction to different levels of text analysis and typologies. Particular atention will be given to the language in some fields such as information and communication, analysing and translating advertisements, articles and political discourses.

The course is organized into two parallel learning paths: one deals with notions of language policies, the role of language and cultural mediation in international settings, with reference to migration contexts and integration activities, the second path is linked to current variations of English, it is focussed upon the analysis of specialized written and spoken texts used in international and plurilingual settings in standard or lingua franca English. Forms, functions, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic aspects of specialized discourse (journalistic, tourist, legal, sociopolitical , institutional) in their various genres and registers will be analyzed.
Theoretical and practical implementations of mediation and translation will be carried out via dictionaries and corpora use.
Lessons will alternate with workshops aimed at analysis, creation, translation of documents and the realization of micro projects related to the LM 38 profiles.
Language activities will aim at developing comprehension and production of texts at level B2+, partly towards C1

The use of dictionaries, parallel texts and corpora in mediation based on collocations and idiomatic expressions.

After a short introduction in terminological aspects of mediation we will discuss specific strategies and the use of research tools (online dictionaries, parallel texts and corpora). A special focus will be on word combinations like collocations, chunks, expressions and idioms.
Metalinguistic reflection will be an important element of the cours

Objectives

Module 1
Introducing the analysis of the social construction of space. Provide tools and concepts useful to the interpretation of collaborative and competitive dynamics in the use of space.


Programme Module 1 (6 CFU)

Basic definitions, especially with special reference to the concepts of space and territory, the processes of territorialization and its effects, the basis of the concept of limit/boundary and its applications. Main disciplinary and transdisciplinary methods of investigation used in geographical research.

Texts for the module 1 (6 CFU)

1) - C. CERRETI, I. DUMONT, M. TABUSI (a cura di), Geografia sociale e democrazia. La sfida della comunicazione, Roma, Aracne, 2012 (alternatively either all the texts in Italian or all the texts in French - communicating it to the teacher before the exam)

2) I. DUMONT (a cura di), Per una geografia sociale. Proposte da un confronto italo-francese, fascicolo monografico del «Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana», 2009, 1

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 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. 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.

Programma
Il corso di giornalismo specialistico del prof. Castiglia si propone di fornire agli studenti un approfondimento sui metodi e sulle tecniche utilizzabili nel giornalismo, illustrando come nasce e si organizza un quotidiano, il ruolo delle immagini e le tecniche di diffusione della notizia, le fonti e gli archivi (di immagini e informazioni), il rapporto della carta stampata con radio e televisione, il ruolo dell’ufficio stampa.
Previsti approfondimenti sulla cronaca, l'inchiesta, il reportage, sui rapporti tra le agenzie, i quotidiani, i periodici, la radio e la televisione e ovviamente sempre maggiore spazio viene dedicato alle nuove forme di giornalismo on line e partecipativo.
Approfondimenti sui Diritti e doveri del giornalista.

Materiale didattico:
Paolo Castiglia: “Giornalismo come e perché. Dalle 5 w all’inchiesta”. Aracne Edizioni. Roma.
Alessandro Barbano: “Manuale di Giornalismo”. Ed. Laterza.
Testo consigliato – Roberto Baldassari: “Giornalismo informazione e comunicazione. Ed. Marsilio 2014 – obbligatorio per i non frequentanti

In the first part of the course, origins and history of advertising will be illustrated, along with the organization of advertising industry and its main professional figures; drawing on many case studies, different advertising techniques and strategies will be presented, showing how these change according to different media (printed ads, TV commercials, web ads, etc. will be taken into consideration). Finally, theoretical frameworks will be discussed and applied to specific advertisements.
The second part of the course focuses on what is probably to be considered advertising’s main ‘resource’ and most longstanding weakness at the same time: the use of stereotypes. After addressing stereotypes in theoretical terms and explaining the reasons for their widespread use and ‘efficacy’, we will focus on three categories of stereotypes commonly found in advertisements: 1) gender and ‘heteronormativity’ (how are female and male subjects and bodies depicted in ads? What are the reasons for and the effects of privileging heterosexual couples?); 2) age (which products/services/goods is the use of elderly in advertising limited to? Are old women and old men ‘used’ in the same way?); 3) race (in which roles non-Caucasian people feature in in advertising images and discourse?). Several forms of communication will be deconstructed and re-constructed in order to challenge common places and to analyze how (hetero)sexism, racism, and ageism work in advertising.
In the final part of the course, we will analyze how advertising normalizes, legitimizes, even celebrates the use of violence.

DESCRIPTION:

The Course is developed into two main sections, debating on the theoretical concept of the right to development as a human right and analyzing the international development cooperation within the United Nations system as well as the international Organizations – IOs - working in the economic, financial and trade fields. Also the regional and national systems (e.g. the European Union and the Italian framework) and the non institutional actors (e.g. NGOs and private business companies) will be investigated.
METHOD OF PRESENTATION: The Course is articulated mainly into lectures, supported by ppt presentations on all the substantial aspects dealing with the topic of international development law. These lectures will be completed by class readings and discussions about the official international documents adopted by concerned IOs and Countries, as well as by the elaboration and presentation of written papers on practical cooperation mechanisms and models. Moreover the participation to conferences, technical workshops and events to be held in Rome and promoted by public and private entities (i.e. IOs, Ministries, research centres, academia and civil society) will be scheduled.

COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES:

Students will be able to:

• To comprehensively examine the most significant views regarding the legal framework of the international development law in the past and current international debate as well as in the international practice, in particular concerning IOs.

• To be updated on lessons learned and good practices in terms of international development cooperation frameworks and related challenges, in particular in relation to the new 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda scenario.

• To have an in depth understanding of the crucial role played by institutional and non institutional actors in the international development law framework.

• To get focused on contemporary political, economic, social and cultural issues through the awareness of the pivotal role, played particularly by BRICs and Developing Countries, thanks to the study of ad hoc policy documents.

• The students will develop an inquiring thinking, thanks to a variety of learning activities in class, such as essay questions, oral presentations, writing assignments, reports, case studies, guest speakers, so to have a real and tangible understanding of how international development cooperation theories at large are put into practice by States, International Organizations (IOs), non institutional actors, such as NGO’s, and other key players.

The course will be organized in seminars: the material to be studied will be distributed by the teacher during the lessons; the students not attending the course are requested to contact the teacher to agree on the texts on which to prepare for the exam.

The course will adopt an international and comparative approach to women’s history in the Western World. It will encompass both methodological issues, using tools such as the biography or the category of gender, and the study of the evolution of women’s social position and of the process of their emancipation in the contemporary age. Students will be able to analyze themes and events of their interest through discussions and individual or group presentations during classes, and choose most of the texts (available also in English) for the final exam.

Two volumes chosen among the following ones:

This course will provide an overview of the cultural and literary context of 17th - 18th century French literature highlighting some of the main features of the period. It will then focus on the reading and analysis of three texts: La Princesse de Clèves, Candide and Les Liasons dangereuses, with the aim of tracing the evolution of the novel with regard to narrative strategies, stylistic and genre changes.

M. Bertini (a cura di), Beaubourg. Auteurs, textes, genres de la littérature française. Le XVII et XVIIIe siècle (the passages to be read and analysed will be said in class). J. Rousset, Forme et signification, Paris, Corti, 1962 (Chapters I-IV).
Texts: Three novels to be chosen among the following : Diderot, Jacques le fataliste o La Religieuse; Laclos, Les Liaisons dangeureuses; Madame de La Fayette, La Princesse de Clèves; Rousseau, La Nouvelle Héloïse (selection of 80 letters from all the 6 parts of the novel); Voltaire, Candide.

We will study the most important poetic and novelistic experiments in early twentieth-century English-language modernism. We will focus in particular on the differences between British artists such as D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf and E. M. Forster, on one hand, and the Irish and American poets as well as Joseph Conrad – an English writer but a transnational novelist.
Our purpose is not just to uncover the early signs of the dynamics that lead to a breakup of that which Antoine Compagnon has defined “le modèle de la philologie, pour laquelle l’unité langue-littérature-culture coïncide avec l’esprit d’une nation, ou d’une race”; or identify the starting point of the process which led eventually a number of non-British authors to transform what was up to that point a national literature; of even greater importance is to make students understand how much these experiments had in common with models being constructed on the Continent by those thinkers and linguists who founder literary theory, truly one of the great inventions of the 20th century.

Fiction
We will be moving back in time, in our investigation of the differences among the authors.
Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse (1927). Novel
E. M. Forster, A Passage to India (1924). Novel
James Joyce, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916). Novel
Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim (1900). Novel
D. H. Lawrence, “Odour of Chrysanthemums” (1911). Short story.

Reading List
Novels which will not be taught in depth during the course but that must be studied for the exam. Choose one among the following two:
D. H. Lawrence, Sons and Lovers (1913)
Ford Madox Ford, The Good Soldier (1915)

Poems
Irish Airman, Leda and the Swan, September 1913, Easter 1916, Byzantium, Sailing to Byzantium,
T. S. Eliot, “Prufrock”, The Waste Land, “The Hollow Men”
Ezra Pound, “To Whistler, American”, “In a Station of the Metro”, “Hugh Selwyn Mauberley”

Before classes start on February 28, the instructor will send to all the students included in the mailing list the poems by W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot and Ezra Pound which we will study in class.

Essays
We will study some of the main theoretical statements set forth by the authors we will study. Among these:
Joseph Conrad, “Preface” to Almayer’s Folly (1895), The Nigger of the “Narcissus” (1897), and a selection from his letters.
T. S. Eliot, “Tradition and the Individual Talent” (1919), “Ulysses, Order and Myth” (1923)

Criticism and Historical Background
These are the first of a number of critical works that form an integral part of the program. More will follow during the course.

The course will analyze the evolution of relations between the United States and Europe from the end of the Second World War to the crisis of US global hegemony. More specifically, the course will debate key moments in the origins and evolution of the transatlantic relationship during the Cold War, such as the Atlantic Charter, the Marshall plan, the formation and evolution of NATO, the Suez Canal crisis, détente and the Vietnam conflict, Germany unification and the end of the East-West division. Th evolution of relations between the United States and Europe after the end of the Cold War will also be presented and debated.

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 focuses on language pathologies, with particular attention to the deficits related to the discursive communication. Among the cases discusses, there are the communicative deficits characterizing pathologies such as autism, schizophrenia, and traumatic brain injury. In such cases, as well as in many neuropsychological and psychopathological disorders, the communicative impairments mainly concern the level of discourse and depend on deficits that primarily involve the cognitive dimension, rather than the linguistic one. Thus, the study of discourse disorders is particularly useful to investigate a more general question that is extremely relevant from a theoretical point of view: the relationships between language and cognition.

This course will provide students with an introduction to some of the main topics in philosophy of mind. The course will be broken down into three parts. In the first part, we will look mostly at a few historical approaches to philosophy of mind. Starting with Descartes and a discussion of substance dualism, we will move on to Locke and Hume, and then behaviorism, identity theory, and the initial formulations of functionalism. In the second part, we will examine some contemporary approaches to the nature of mind, including current views on functionalism, Dennett’s intentional stance, Fodor’s language of thought, and eliminative materialism. With some of the standard approaches covered in the first two parts, we will turn in the third part to a more delimited issue: the problem of developing a naturalistic theory of self-consciousness, within which the themes of Freud’s criticism of the subject -- the themes of the unconscious, self-deception, and defense mechanisms -- can be read in a new light.

The course aims to develop non-native students’ linguistic skills, in order to take them toward an advanced level of proficiency. More complex morphological and syntactic aspects of the French sentence structure will be focused from a contrastive perspective. Students will improve their understanding and awareness of the language use, appealing to the logical relations used by native speakers. The analysis will move from a sentence-based grammar to the discourse level, through an introduction to different levels of text analysis and typologies. Particular atention will be given to the language in some fields such as information and communication, analysing and translating advertisements, articles and political discourses.

The course is organized into two parallel learning paths: one deals with notions of language policies, the role of language and cultural mediation in international settings, with reference to migration contexts and integration activities, the second path is linked to current variations of English, it is focussed upon the analysis of specialized written and spoken texts used in international and plurilingual settings in standard or lingua franca English. Forms, functions, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic aspects of specialized discourse (journalistic, tourist, legal, sociopolitical , institutional) in their various genres and registers will be analyzed.
Theoretical and practical implementations of mediation and translation will be carried out via dictionaries and corpora use.
Lessons will alternate with workshops aimed at analysis, creation, translation of documents and the realization of micro projects related to the LM 38 profiles.
Language activities will aim at developing comprehension and production of texts at level B2+, partly towards C1

The use of dictionaries, parallel texts and corpora in mediation based on collocations and idiomatic expressions.

After a short introduction in terminological aspects of mediation we will discuss specific strategies and the use of research tools (online dictionaries, parallel texts and corpora). A special focus will be on word combinations like collocations, chunks, expressions and idioms.
Metalinguistic reflection will be an important element of the cours

Particular atention will be given to the language in some fields such as information and communication, analysing and translating advertisements, articles and political discourses.

The course is organized into two parallel learning paths: one deals with notions of language policies, the role of language and cultural mediation in international settings, with reference to migration contexts and integration activities, the second path is linked to current variations of English, it is focussed upon the analysis of specialized written and spoken texts used in international and plurilingual settings in standard or lingua franca English. Forms, functions, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic aspects of specialized discourse (journalistic, tourist, legal, sociopolitical , institutional) in their various genres and registers will be analyzed.
Theoretical and practical implementations of mediation and translation will be carried out via dictionaries and corpora use.
Lessons will alternate with workshops aimed at analysis, creation, translation of documents and the realization of micro projects related to the LM 38 profiles.
Language activities will aim at developing comprehension and production of texts at level B2+, partly towards C1

The use of dictionaries, parallel texts and corpora in mediation based on collocations and idiomatic expressions.

After a short introduction in terminological aspects of mediation we will discuss specific strategies and the use of research tools (online dictionaries, parallel texts and corpora). A special focus will be on word combinations like collocations, chunks, expressions and idioms.
Metalinguistic reflection will be an important element of the cours

Objectives

Module 1
Introducing the analysis of the social construction of space. Provide tools and concepts useful to the interpretation of collaborative and competitive dynamics in the use of space.


Programme Module 1 (6 CFU)

Basic definitions, especially with special reference to the concepts of space and territory, the processes of territorialization and its effects, the basis of the concept of limit/boundary and its applications. Main disciplinary and transdisciplinary methods of investigation used in geographical research.

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 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. 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.

Programma
Il corso di giornalismo specialistico del prof. Castiglia si propone di fornire agli studenti un approfondimento sui metodi e sulle tecniche utilizzabili nel giornalismo, illustrando come nasce e si organizza un quotidiano, il ruolo delle immagini e le tecniche di diffusione della notizia, le fonti e gli archivi (di immagini e informazioni), il rapporto della carta stampata con radio e televisione, il ruolo dell’ufficio stampa.
Previsti approfondimenti sulla cronaca, l'inchiesta, il reportage, sui rapporti tra le agenzie, i quotidiani, i periodici, la radio e la televisione e ovviamente sempre maggiore spazio viene dedicato alle nuove forme di giornalismo on line e partecipativo.
Approfondimenti sui Diritti e doveri del giornalista.

In the first part of the course, origins and history of advertising will be illustrated, along with the organization of advertising industry and its main professional figures; drawing on many case studies, different advertising techniques and strategies will be presented, showing how these change according to different media (printed ads, TV commercials, web ads, etc. will be taken into consideration). Finally, theoretical frameworks will be discussed and applied to specific advertisements.
The second part of the course focuses on what is probably to be considered advertising’s main ‘resource’ and most longstanding weakness at the same time: the use of stereotypes. After addressing stereotypes in theoretical terms and explaining the reasons for their widespread use and ‘efficacy’, we will focus on three categories of stereotypes commonly found in advertisements: 1) gender and ‘heteronormativity’ (how are female and male subjects and bodies depicted in ads? What are the reasons for and the effects of privileging heterosexual couples?); 2) age (which products/services/goods is the use of elderly in advertising limited to? Are old women and old men ‘used’ in the same way?); 3) race (in which roles non-Caucasian people feature in in advertising images and discourse?). Several forms of communication will be deconstructed and re-constructed in order to challenge common places and to analyze how (hetero)sexism, racism, and ageism work in advertising.
In the final part of the course, we will analyze how advertising normalizes, legitimizes, even celebrates the use of violence.

Gli studi semiotici e antropologici hanno messo in evidenza come attraverso il sistema di comunicazione del cibo si definiscano (o autodefiniscano) rapporti di potere, distinzioni tra classi sociali, questioni di genere, vincoli tra popoli lontani, identità nazionali, locali e meticce, pratiche religiose o schemi dottrinali e finanche tradizioni letterarie. Il modulo esplora alcune di queste tematiche attraverso testi che appartengono ormai anche alla tradizione culinaria latinoamericana oltre che a quella letteraria.

We will study the most important poetic and novelistic experiments in early twentieth-century English-language modernism. We will focus in particular on the differences between British artists such as D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf and E. M. Forster, on one hand, and the Irish and American poets as well as Joseph Conrad – an English writer but a transnational novelist.
Our purpose is not just to uncover the early signs of the dynamics that lead to a breakup of that which Antoine Compagnon has defined “le modèle de la philologie, pour laquelle l’unité langue-littérature-culture coïncide avec l’esprit d’une nation, ou d’une race”; or identify the starting point of the process which led eventually a number of non-British authors to transform what was up to that point a national literature; of even greater importance is to make students understand how much these experiments had in common with models being constructed on the Continent by those thinkers and linguists who founder literary theory, truly one of the great inventions of the 20th century.

Fiction
We will be moving back in time, in our investigation of the differences among the authors.
Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse (1927). Novel
E. M. Forster, A Passage to India (1924). Novel
James Joyce, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916). Novel
Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim (1900). Novel
D. H. Lawrence, “Odour of Chrysanthemums” (1911). Short story.

Reading List
Novels which will not be taught in depth during the course but that must be studied for the exam. Choose one among the following two:
D. H. Lawrence, Sons and Lovers (1913)
Ford Madox Ford, The Good Soldier (1915)

Poems
Irish Airman, Leda and the Swan, September 1913, Easter 1916, Byzantium, Sailing to Byzantium,
T. S. Eliot, “Prufrock”, The Waste Land, “The Hollow Men”
Ezra Pound, “To Whistler, American”, “In a Station of the Metro”, “Hugh Selwyn Mauberley”

Before classes start on February 28, the instructor will send to all the students included in the mailing list the poems by W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot and Ezra Pound which we will study in class.

Essays
We will study some of the main theoretical statements set forth by the authors we will study. Among these:
Joseph Conrad, “Preface” to Almayer’s Folly (1895), The Nigger of the “Narcissus” (1897), and a selection from his letters.
T. S. Eliot, “Tradition and the Individual Talent” (1919), “Ulysses, Order and Myth” (1923)
Ezra Pound, “Vorticism” (1914), “Henry James and Remy de Goncourt” (in Make It New, 1935)
Virginia Woolf, “Modern Fiction” (1919), “Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown” (1923), Reviews of Conrad’s novels, references to James Joyce.

Criticism and Historical Background
These are the first of a number of critical works that form an integral part of the program. More will follow during the course.

The Fall of Man in Medieval Germanic Literature

The course will focus on the different modes of translating and interpreting Biblical passages in the medieval Germanic milieu. Special attention will be given to the Fall of man and to the representations of Adam and Eve in texts belonging to different genres and periods. Problems related to source identification, to the relations among texts, to the interaction between word and image, to the various allusions and quotations of the Temptation episode found in works of different authors (Chaucer, Langland, Gottfried von Strassburg), to the allegorical and metaphorical dimension of the scene as it appears in literary texts will be analyzed from a literary, philological and linguistic perspective. The course will also provide students with an understanding of the main aspects of language changes over time (phonological, lexical, morphological, syntactic). Students will learn how to use the principle bibliographical instruments for carrying out individual or team researches.

The course aims to develop non-native students’ linguistic skills, in order to take them toward an advanced level of proficiency. More complex morphological and syntactic aspects of the French sentence structure will be focused from a contrastive perspective. Students will improve their understanding and awareness of the language use, appealing to the logical relations used by native speakers. The analysis will move from a sentence-based grammar to the discourse level, through an introduction to different levels of text analysis and typologies. Particular atention will be given to the language in some fields such as information and communication, analysing and translating advertisements, articles and political discourses.

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 European 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?

Medieval English and German authors between Latin and the Vernacular languages

The aim of the course is to describe the medieval author's concern with the diffusion of knowledge  and his concept of vernacular literacy through the analysis of texts, prologues, letters coming from the Germanic milieu. Special attention will be paid to the relationship between Latin and the vernacular languages, to translation strategies, to the use of different languages and dialects within the same text and to the intended audience. 
The works analyzed will serve as the starting point for outlining the main literary and cultural conditions and circumstances in which they were produced and for widening and refining the students’ knowledge in the field of diachronic linguistics and textual tradition. Students will learn how to use the principle bibliographical instruments for carrying out individual or team investigations on semantic, morphological, syntactic and literary aspects.
Seminars, with students’ presentations of individual researches, will be held. Visits to historical libraries will be planned.

This course is intended to analyze the discourse categories within the theoretical framework of Generative Grammar, in relation to a hierarchy of functional projections specified for a number of discourse-semantic features which determine their formal properties and their interpretation at the interfaces.
Categories like Topic, Focus, Contrast and Correction will be treated in comparative and cross-linguistic perspective, with particular attention to the comparison between Italian and the languages included in the curricula of the students that will attend the course.
In particular, the module concentrates on tow aspects:
(1) the interpretation of different focus types (information, corrective, contrastive, exclusive, mirative) and their formal realizations, both from a syntactic (in situ vs. fronted; root vs. embedded) and a prosodic viewpoint.
(2) the creation of topic chains and the interpretation of null subjects, comparing different types of pro-drop addressing consistent (e.g. Italian), partial (e.g. Russian) and radical (e.g. Chinese) pro-drop languages.

The Fall of Man in Medieval Germanic Literature

The course will focus on the different modes of translating and interpreting Biblical passages in the medieval Germanic milieu. Special attention will be given to the Fall of man and to the representations of Adam and Eve in texts belonging to different genres and periods. Problems related to source identification, to the relations among texts, to the interaction between word and image, to the various allusions and quotations of the Temptation episode found in works of different authors (Chaucer, Langland, Gottfried von Strassburg), to the allegorical and metaphorical dimension of the scene as it appears in literary texts will be analyzed from a literary, philological and linguistic perspective. The course will also provide students with an understanding of the main aspects of language changes over time (phonological, lexical, morphological, syntactic). Students will learn how to use the principle bibliographical instruments for carrying out individual or team researches.

Unit I – 36 hours - 6 cfu.
Socio-economic changes and environmental alterations from the eighteenth to the late twentieth century.
The course consists of two parts, perfectly complementary. The first part, introductory, intends to provide an essential framework of environmental history. The second part is much wider and intends to illustrate and analyze the environmental changes that with increasing intensity and importance have marked the history of the last two and a half centuries, in their inseparable relationship with the contemporary socio-economic dynamics and with a particular reference to the Italian experience.

The critical edition of medieval romance texts

The course will address the main methodological problems in ecdotics and textual criticism with regard to medieval romance narrative, through examples in two or three Romance languages. It will therefore examine the process of establishing a critical text: the handwritten tradition, the importance of variants and error, the building of a stemma codicum, the critical edition of a text.

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 focuses on language pathologies, with particular attention to the deficits related to the discursive communication. Among the cases discusses, there are the communicative deficits characterizing pathologies such as autism, schizophrenia, and traumatic brain injury. In such cases, as well as in many neuropsychological and psychopathological disorders, the communicative impairments mainly concern the level of discourse and depend on deficits that primarily involve the cognitive dimension, rather than the linguistic one. Thus, the study of discourse disorders is particularly useful to investigate a more general question that is extremely relevant from a theoretical point of view: the relationships between language and cognition.

Objectives

Module 1
Introducing the analysis of the social construction of space. Provide tools and concepts useful to the interpretation of collaborative and competitive dynamics in the use of space.


Programme Module 1 (6 CFU)

Basic definitions, especially with special reference to the concepts of space and territory, the processes of territorialization and its effects, the basis of the concept of limit/boundary and its applications. Main disciplinary and transdisciplinary methods of investigation used in geographical research.

Texts for the module 1 (6 CFU)

1) - C. CERRETI, I. DUMONT, M. TABUSI (a cura di), Geografia sociale e democrazia. La sfida della comunicazione, Roma, Aracne, 2012 (alternatively either all the texts in Italian or all the texts in French - communicating it to the teacher before the exam)

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 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. 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.

Programma
Il corso di giornalismo specialistico del prof. Castiglia si propone di fornire agli studenti un approfondimento sui metodi e sulle tecniche utilizzabili nel giornalismo, illustrando come nasce e si organizza un quotidiano, il ruolo delle immagini e le tecniche di diffusione della notizia, le fonti e gli archivi (di immagini e informazioni), il rapporto della carta stampata con radio e televisione, il ruolo dell’ufficio stampa.
Previsti approfondimenti sulla cronaca, l'inchiesta, il reportage, sui rapporti tra le agenzie, i quotidiani, i periodici, la radio e la televisione e ovviamente sempre maggiore spazio viene dedicato alle nuove forme di giornalismo on line e partecipativo.

In the first part of the course, origins and history of advertising will be illustrated, along with the organization of advertising industry and its main professional figures; drawing on many case studies, different advertising techniques and strategies will be presented, showing how these change according to different media (printed ads, TV commercials, web ads, etc. will be taken into consideration). Finally, theoretical frameworks will be discussed and applied to specific advertisements.
The second part of the course focuses on what is probably to be considered advertising’s main ‘resource’ and most longstanding weakness at the same time: the use of stereotypes. After addressing stereotypes in theoretical terms and explaining the reasons for their widespread use and ‘efficacy’, we will focus on three categories of stereotypes commonly found in advertisements: 1) gender and ‘heteronormativity’ (how are female and male subjects and bodies depicted in ads? What are the reasons for and the effects of privileging heterosexual couples?); 2) age (which products/services/goods is the use of elderly in advertising limited to? Are old women and old men ‘used’ in the same way?); 3) race (in which roles non-Caucasian people feature in in advertising images and discourse?). Several forms of communication will be deconstructed and re-constructed in order to challenge common places and to analyze how (hetero)sexism, racism, and ageism work in advertising.
In the final part of the course, we will analyze how advertising normalizes, legitimizes, even celebrates the use of violence.

Gli studi semiotici e antropologici hanno messo in evidenza come attraverso il sistema di comunicazione del cibo si definiscano (o autodefiniscano) rapporti di potere, distinzioni tra classi sociali, questioni di genere, vincoli tra popoli lontani, identità nazionali, locali e meticce, pratiche religiose o schemi dottrinali e finanche tradizioni letterarie. Il modulo esplora alcune di queste tematiche attraverso testi che appartengono ormai anche alla tradizione culinaria latinoamericana oltre che a quella letteraria.

We will study the most important poetic and novelistic experiments in early twentieth-century English-language modernism. We will focus in particular on the differences between British artists such as D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf and E. M. Forster, on one hand, and the Irish and American poets as well as Joseph Conrad – an English writer but a transnational novelist.
Our purpose is not just to uncover the early signs of the dynamics that lead to a breakup of that which Antoine Compagnon has defined “le modèle de la philologie, pour laquelle l’unité langue-littérature-culture coïncide avec l’esprit d’une nation, ou d’une race”; or identify the starting point of the process which led eventually a number of non-British authors to transform what was up to that point a national literature; of even greater importance is to make students understand how much these experiments had in common with models being constructed on the Continent by those thinkers and linguists who founder literary theory, truly one of the great inventions of the 20th century.

Fiction
We will be moving back in time, in our investigation of the differences among the authors.
Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse (1927). Novel

Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim (1900). Novel
D. H. Lawrence, “Odour of Chrysanthemums” (1911). Short story.

Reading List

D. H. Lawrence, Sons and Lovers (1913)
Ford Madox Ford, The Good Soldier (1915)

Poems
Irish Airman, Leda and the Swan, September 1913, Easter 1916, Byzantium, Sailing to Byzantium,
T. S. Eliot, “Prufrock”, The Waste Land, “The Hollow Men”
Ezra Pound, “To Whistler, American”, “In a Station of the Metro”, “Hugh Selwyn Mauberley”

Before classes start on February 28, the instructor will send to all the students included in the mailing list the poems by W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot and Ezra Pound which we will study in class.

Essays
We will study some of the main theoretical statements set forth by the authors we will study. Among these:
Joseph Conrad, “Preface” to Almayer’s Folly (1895), The Nigger of the “Narcissus” (1897), and a selection from his letters.
T. S. Eliot, “Tradition and the Individual Talent” (1919), “Ulysses, Order and Myth” (1923)
Ezra Pound, “Vorticism” (1914), “Henry James and Remy de Goncourt” (in Make It New, 1935)
Virginia Woolf, “Modern Fiction” (1919), “Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown” (1923), Reviews of Conrad’s novels, references to James Joyce.

Criticism and Historical Background
These are the first of a number of critical works that form an integral part of the program. More will follow during the course.

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 focuses on language pathologies, with particular attention to the deficits related to the discursive communication. Among the cases discusses, there are the communicative deficits characterizing pathologies such as autism, schizophrenia, and traumatic brain injury. In such cases, as well as in many neuropsychological and psychopathological disorders, the communicative impairments mainly concern the level of discourse and depend on deficits that primarily involve the cognitive dimension, rather than the linguistic one. Thus, the study of discourse disorders is particularly useful to investigate a more general question that is extremely relevant from a theoretical point of view: the relationships between language and cognition.

Objectives

Module 1
Introducing the analysis of the social construction of space. Provide tools and concepts useful to the interpretation of collaborative and competitive dynamics in the use of space.


Programme Module 1 (6 CFU)

Basic definitions, especially with special reference to the concepts of space and territory, the processes of territorialization and its effects, the basis of the concept of limit/boundary and its applications. Main disciplinary and transdisciplinary methods of investigation used in geographical research.

Texts for the module 1 (6 CFU)

1) - C. CERRETI, I. DUMONT, M. TABUSI (a cura di), Geografia sociale e democrazia. La sfida della comunicazione, Roma, Aracne, 2012 (alternatively either all the texts in Italian or all the texts in French - communicating it to the teacher before the exam)

2) I. DUMONT (a cura di), Per una geografia sociale. Proposte da un confronto italo-francese, fascicolo monografico del «Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana», 2009, 1

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 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. 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.

Programma
Il corso di giornalismo specialistico del prof. Castiglia si propone di fornire agli studenti un approfondimento sui metodi e sulle tecniche utilizzabili nel giornalismo, illustrando come nasce e si organizza un quotidiano, il ruolo delle immagini e le tecniche di diffusione della notizia, le fonti e gli archivi (di immagini e informazioni), il rapporto della carta stampata con radio e televisione, il ruolo dell’ufficio stampa.
Previsti approfondimenti sulla cronaca, l'inchiesta, il reportage, sui rapporti tra le agenzie, i quotidiani, i periodici, la radio e la televisione e ovviamente sempre maggiore spazio viene dedicato alle nuove forme di giornalismo on line e partecipativo.

In the first part of the course, origins and history of advertising will be illustrated, along with the organization of advertising industry and its main professional figures; drawing on many case studies, different advertising techniques and strategies will be presented, showing how these change according to different media (printed ads, TV commercials, web ads, etc. will be taken into consideration). Finally, theoretical frameworks will be discussed and applied to specific advertisements.
The second part of the course focuses on what is probably to be considered advertising’s main ‘resource’ and most longstanding weakness at the same time: the use of stereotypes. After addressing stereotypes in theoretical terms and explaining the reasons for their widespread use and ‘efficacy’, we will focus on three categories of stereotypes commonly found in advertisements: 1) gender and ‘heteronormativity’ (how are female and male subjects and bodies depicted in ads? What are the reasons for and the effects of privileging heterosexual couples?); 2) age (which products/services/goods is the use of elderly in advertising limited to? Are old women and old men ‘used’ in the same way?); 3) race (in which roles non-Caucasian people feature in in advertising images and discourse?). Several forms of communication will be deconstructed and re-constructed in order to challenge common places and to analyze how (hetero)sexism, racism, and ageism work in advertising.
In the final part of the course, we will analyze how advertising normalizes, legitimizes, even celebrates the use of violence.

Gli studi semiotici e antropologici hanno messo in evidenza come attraverso il sistema di comunicazione del cibo si definiscano (o autodefiniscano) rapporti di potere, distinzioni tra classi sociali, questioni di genere, vincoli tra popoli lontani, identità nazionali, locali e meticce, pratiche religiose o schemi dottrinali e finanche tradizioni letterarie. Il modulo esplora alcune di queste tematiche attraverso testi che appartengono ormai anche alla tradizione culinaria latinoamericana oltre che a quella letteraria.

We will study the most important poetic and novelistic experiments in early twentieth-century English-language modernism. We will focus in particular on the differences between British artists such as D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf and E. M. Forster, on one hand, and the Irish and American poets as well as Joseph Conrad – an English writer but a transnational novelist.
Our purpose is not just to uncover the early signs of the dynamics that lead to a breakup of that which Antoine Compagnon has defined “le modèle de la philologie, pour laquelle l’unité langue-littérature-culture coïncide avec l’esprit d’une nation, ou d’une race”; or identify the starting point of the process which led eventually a number of non-British authors to transform what was up to that point a national literature; of even greater importance is to make students understand how much these experiments had in common with models being constructed on the Continent by those thinkers and linguists who founder literary theory, truly one of the great inventions of the 20th century.

Fiction
We will be moving back in time, in our investigation of the differences among the authors.
Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse (1927). Novel
E. M. Forster, A Passage to India (1924). Novel
James Joyce, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916). Novel
Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim (1900). Novel
D. H. Lawrence, “Odour of Chrysanthemums” (1911). Short story.

Reading List
Novels which will not be taught in depth during the course but that must be studied for the exam. Choose one among the following two:
D. H. Lawrence, Sons and Lovers (1913)
Ford Madox Ford, The Good Soldier (1915)

Poems
Irish Airman, Leda and the Swan, September 1913, Easter 1916, Byzantium, Sailing to Byzantium,
T. S. Eliot, “Prufrock”, The Waste Land, “The Hollow Men”
Ezra Pound, “To Whistler, American”, “In a Station of the Metro”, “Hugh Selwyn Mauberley”

Before classes start on February 28, the instructor will send to all the students included in the mailing list the poems by W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot and Ezra Pound which we will study in class.

Essays
We will study some of the main theoretical statements set forth by the authors we will study. Among these:
Joseph Conrad, “Preface” to Almayer’s Folly (1895), The Nigger of the “Narcissus” (1897), and a selection from his letters.
T. S. Eliot, “Tradition and the Individual Talent” (1919), “Ulysses, Order and Myth” (1923)
Ezra Pound, “Vorticism” (1914), “Henry James and Remy de Goncourt” (in Make It New, 1935)
Virginia Woolf, “Modern Fiction” (1919), “Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown” (1923), Reviews of Conrad’s novels, references to James Joyce.

The Fall of Man in Medieval Germanic Literature

The course will focus on the different modes of translating and interpreting Biblical passages in the medieval Germanic milieu. Special attention will be given to the Fall of man and to the representations of Adam and Eve in texts belonging to different genres and periods. Problems related to source identification, to the relations among texts, to the interaction between word and image, to the various allusions and quotations of the Temptation episode found in works of different authors (Chaucer, Langland, Gottfried von Strassburg), to the allegorical and metaphorical dimension of the scene as it appears in literary texts will be analyzed from a literary, philological and linguistic perspective. The course will also provide students with an understanding of the main aspects of language changes over time (phonological, lexical, morphological, syntactic). Students will learn how to use the principle bibliographical instruments for carrying out individual or team researches.

The course aims to develop non-native students’ linguistic skills, in order to take them toward an advanced level of proficiency. More complex morphological and syntactic aspects of the French sentence structure will be focused from a contrastive perspective. Students will improve their understanding and awareness of the language use, appealing to the logical relations used by native speakers. The analysis will move from a sentence-based grammar to the discourse level, through an introduction to different levels of text analysis and typologies. Particular atention will be given to the language in some fields such as information and communication, analysing and translating advertisements, articles and political discourses.

After a short introduction into translation theory and a study of some particular theoretical questions, such as the concept of equivalence, universal theories compared to relativistic theories in translation theory, the "Skopos Theory", the "Frames & Scenes", we will dedicate us to practical translation work. This year we will work together on the translation of the book "My minute with Paul McCartney" by the famous german author Friedrich Christian Delius.

The course aims to develop non-native students’ linguistic skills, in order to take them toward an advanced level of proficiency. More complex morphological and syntactic aspects of the French sentence structure will be focused from a contrastive perspective. Students will improve their understanding and awareness of the language use, appealing to the logical relations used by native speakers. The analysis will move from a sentence-based grammar to the discourse level, through an introduction to different levels of text analysis and typologies. Particular atention will be given to the language in some fields such as information and communication, analysing and translating advertisements, articles and political discourses.

Artilcles on Second language listening comprehension

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 European 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?

The critical edition of medieval romance texts

The course will address the main methodological problems in ecdotics and textual criticism with regard to medieval romance narrative, through examples in two or three Romance languages. It will therefore examine the process of establishing a critical text: the handwritten tradition, the importance of variants and error, the building of a stemma codicum, the critical edition of a text.

Medieval English and German authors between Latin and the Vernacular languages

The aim of the course is to describe the medieval author's concern with the diffusion of knowledge  and his concept of vernacular literacy through the analysis of texts, prologues, letters coming from the Germanic milieu. Special attention will be paid to the relationship between Latin and the vernacular languages, to translation strategies, to the use of different languages and dialects within the same text and to the intended audience. 
The works analyzed will serve as the starting point for outlining the main literary and cultural conditions and circumstances in which they were produced and for widening and refining the students’ knowledge in the field of diachronic linguistics and textual tradition. Students will learn how to use the principle bibliographical instruments for carrying out individual or team investigations on semantic, morphological, syntactic and literary aspects.
Seminars, with students’ presentations of individual researches, will be held. Visits to historical libraries will be planned.

This course is intended to analyze the discourse categories within the theoretical framework of Generative Grammar, in relation to a hierarchy of functional projections specified for a number of discourse-semantic features which determine their formal properties and their interpretation at the interfaces.
Categories like Topic, Focus, Contrast and Correction will be treated in comparative and cross-linguistic perspective, with particular attention to the comparison between Italian and the languages included in the curricula of the students that will attend the course.
In particular, the module concentrates on tow aspects:
(1) the interpretation of different focus types (information, corrective, contrastive, exclusive, mirative) and their formal realizations, both from a syntactic (in situ vs. fronted; root vs. embedded) and a prosodic viewpoint.
(2) the creation of topic chains and the interpretation of null subjects, comparing different types of pro-drop addressing consistent (e.g. Italian), partial (e.g. Russian) and radical (e.g. Chinese) pro-drop languages.

The Fall of Man in Medieval Germanic Literature

The course will focus on the different modes of translating and interpreting Biblical passages in the medieval Germanic milieu. Special attention will be given to the Fall of man and to the representations of Adam and Eve in texts belonging to different genres and periods. Problems related to source identification, to the relations among texts, to the interaction between word and image, to the various allusions and quotations of the Temptation episode found in works of different authors (Chaucer, Langland, Gottfried von Strassburg), to the allegorical and metaphorical dimension of the scene as it appears in literary texts will be analyzed from a literary, philological and linguistic perspective. The course will also provide students with an understanding of the main aspects of language changes over time (phonological, lexical, morphological, syntactic). Students will learn how to use the principle bibliographical instruments for carrying out individual or team researches.
