Course Description

This is the first part of a two-semester course covering the period from the 15th and 17th centuries. It focuses on Renaissance and Baroque periods. Rather than the global and idealizing point of view, often confining to the "family novel" of the great heroic artists, it places greater emphasis on a whole series of problems, artistic and inartistic, considered as sensitive questions: problems of space, place of Antiquity, religious devotion, funerary practices, political images, mannerisms and bodily movements, and mannerism and technique. In other words, a history of forms and styles allows a deeper questioning of the profound inventiveness of the visual productions of the Renaissance and the Baroque age.

Course Description

This is a graduate level course that is part of the Laurea Magistrale program. The course is intended for advanced level students only. Enrollment is by consent of the instructor. The first part of the course focuses on the history and development of non-European literature in French, with particular attention to the relationship between literary texts and the historical, artistic, and linguistic context. Special attention is placed on the different methodologies useful for the analysis and interpretation of literary texts. The second part of the course focuses on the issues of diversity and inclusion in French-speaking migrant literatures with particular attention to Quebec, Lebanese, and Senegalese literatures. Special attention is placed on literature written  by migrant authors and literature written by those born in exile. Voluntary or forced mobility generates a literature with a dual focus: towards the country of origin and towards the country of adoption. Migrant writings, in a French-speaking context, give rise to a third space in which identity is renegotiated through writing, a space for the elaboration of diversity in search of similarities. Principal texts by Marco Micone, Antonio D'Alfonso, Fulvio Caccia, Amin Maalouf, and Wajdi Mouawad.

Course Description
Freedom of speech is at the heart of some very lively issues. In recent years, notions such as “politically correct” or “two weights, two measures” are frequently used in public debate, without analyzing the notions of freedom of speech, its limits, or end game. At the intersection of philosophy, law, political sciences and linguistics, this course examines the significance of freedom of speech in modern and contemporary political thought, and in the constitutional traditions in order to give students more precise tools to analyze recent topics: blasphemy, hate speech, the use of stereotypes, and the limits of humor.
