תאור כללי של הקורס:
The aim of this course is to investigate which characteristics ‘make’ an Italian. From Dante to the present day we will analyze how Italians have seen themselves respect to their past, present and future. Through the analysis of literary and theoretical works, movies and first-person accounts, we will explore, therefore, the way in which Italians have theorized themselves.
Readings and class discussions will be conducted in English with optional readings in Italian.
Once a week (except the first week), every student will have to write a 200-word post about one of the readings assigned that week.
