Objectives
In consistency with the educational purposes of the whole teaching course, aim of the teaching unit is to give students a basic knowledge and comprehension skills in the field of Roman History, with the help of advanced textbooks. Moreover, it will make the student able to apply the acquired knowledge in an expert and reflective way, making autonomous judgments, communicating ideas, problems and reflections in a clear and correct way, and developing the knowledge required to go further in the studies. In particular, the course aims at outlining, through the presentation of literary and documentary sources, the most significant aspects of the historical evolution of the Roman world, from a wide variety of angles, and identifying the peculiar features of Roman civilization in comparison with other civilizations of Antiquity and of later times; the second part of the course will be devoted to a more detailed analysis of a specific topic of political-institutional, social-economic and cultural history and to an analysis of its treatment by contemporary historiography.
