Educational objectives The course aims to deepen the reading and interpretation of the texts of Italian literature within a gender perspective with a focus on the national and European historical-cultural context.
At the end of the module the student, through the direct reading of some works, will have a good knowledge of the production of the authors who open a space for debate on the role and modalities of gendered perspectives in the studies of Italian literature; he will also be able to exercise good understanding, analysis and critical interpretation skills on the proposed literary texts, independently applying the methodology learned.

Educational objectives The module aims to reconstruct the history of tourism from the unification of the Italian Kingdom to the end of the Second World War, the goal is to highlight the formation of national identity, the realization of the nationalization of the masses with tourist practices. In addition to outline the consensus reached by fascism at various levels of Italian society with travel in Italy, in Italian colonies or abroad organized by the organizations of the regime. The module aims to provide students with tools to understand the phenomenon of tourism from a historical point of view.

Educational objectives The course provide participants with the theoretical, methodological and technical tools that are needed in order to understand and to manage local development processes. The main themes are: agglomeration processes, polarization and spatial uneveness across geographical scales; the role of institutions, the "new regionalism" and the non-economic foundations of economic development; local production systems and transnational production networks; the relation between innovation, geographical space and development; Italian and European regional development policies and their most recent evolutions. During the laboratories, participants will select a region, study that region with qualitative, quantitative and cartographic methods, identify a local development strategy and the instruments for its design and implementation.

Educational objectives Knowledge and understanding: Students will be able to understand the relationships between population dynamics and economic development and of the differences in demographic behavior between advanced and developing countries; to this end they will have knowledge of policies adopted and statistical data, local, national and international related to population structure and movement; mortality and health; fertility and reproductive health; and migration.
Applying knowledge and understanding: students will be able to use the theories and methods that explain the relationships between population dynamics and economic development and the differences in demographic behavior between advanced and developing countries.
students will be able to use statistical methods and data at local, national and international level, for
Making judgement: students will develop an autonomous judgment capability on a theoretical and practical perspective, on the population dynamics.
Communication skills: students will develop an attitude for demographic reasoning and the capacity for argumentation on the population dynamics.
Learning skills: students will be able to deal with other subjects of the statistic and demographic field thanks to the basic notions of population dynamics.

Educational objectives The main aim of the course is to provide advanced theoretical interpretative tools for understanding the geographical representation of reality, with reference to cartography and the construction of scenarios for political, administrative and institutional purposes.
The lectures are accompanied by other didactic forms (open debates, seminars, discussion with authors on recently published books, group and individual works) useful for bringing the theoretical notions acquired into the actuality and complexity of reality.
Therefore, the acquisition of critical and judgment skills on the contextual elements that determine / influence the relationships between geography and representation, as well as the public communication of these skills, become specific objectives of the course.
It is realistically expected that at the end of the course the student will have acquired the ability to autonomously reflect on topical issues and great general interest.
