Educational objectives The course aims to develop:
- an in-depth understanding of the methodological challenges, critical and problematic aspects
posed by the study of Latin American history in colonial and post-independence times;
- familiarity with the changing historiographical concerns of the sub-discipline over the course of
the recent decades;
- the students’ ability to sustain concentration and to develop intellectual autonomy through
independent study, connected to other disciplines in the various historical eras and cultural contexts;
- the students’ ability to apply the acquired knowledge and use the specific terminology of the
discipline.
|
Educational objectives The module
- provides students with knowledge and understanding of the methodological, critical and
problematic aspects of the discipline; proposes regional and sector-specific perspectives through
which research projects relating to the discipline can be brought to fruition; shows the variability
of the fields of interest within which disciplinary skills can be applied (Dublin descriptor 1)
- develops students' independent ability to relate what they have learned to other disciplinary
areas: historical, literary, artistic, cultural heritage, economic, political, historical-religious, etc.;
(descriptor 2)
- enables students to use the knowledge acquired and the specific language learned for so-called
“transversal skills” (independence of judgement, communication skills (descriptors 3-5).

Educational objectives Given for granted some basic and indispensable goals commonly shared by the Master in Philosophy, the course intends to attain the following specific objectives: Knowledge and ability to understand (Dublin descriptor A): detailed and articulated knowledge of a philosophical problem in theoretical perspective; knowledge of key concepts and terms, even very technical ones, in theoretical perspective. Application skills (descriptor B): ability to understand and to interpret classic texts of the discipline, also with evaluation of the problems of translation; ability of mature and personal theoretical criticism of texts. Autonomy of judgement (descriptor C): ability to argue and gain a personal perspective on the subject in question (also through active participation in seminars). Communication skills (descriptor D): ability to use a technical vocabulary, even a very specifical one; ability to argue with property of language on the treated topics. Learning ability (descriptor E): ability to deepen the issues also in a very personal, autonomous and original way (through personal bibliographic research, specific insights etc...).

Educational objectives The aim of the course is to develop knowledge on:
(i) the evolution of the Italian economy and its regional divides between the 20th and 21st centuries
considering political, social, institutional changes, as well as interactions with the international
economy;
(ii) the most recent historiographical debate on the evolution of the Italian economy and the
“Southern Question”;
(iii) the behaviour of economic and institutional subjects (public and private, national and
international) in the Italian economy and the “Southern Question”, from the beginning of the 20th
century to more recent years.

Educational objectives The course aims to provide knowledge and understanding of the methodological, critical and applicable aspects of the Discipline; it proposes geographical areas and sectorial perspectives in which related projects are activated; it shows the variability of fields of interest; it enables the student to master the specific topics in order to use them and apply them in other fields of study while using the correct specific language. With the acquired knowledge the student will be able to develop autonomous ability of connections with other disciplines in the various historical epochs and cultural contexts.

Educational objectives The course provides students with in-depth training on religious phenomena from antiquity to the contemporary age, in a comparative and historical perspective consistent with the Italian tradition of the discipline. The analysis develops in constant interaction with related fields (anthropology, philosophy, psychology, semiotics, sociology, cultural geography). The course offers up-to-date knowledge and methodological tools to understand the variety of religious systems and their historical evolution. It also presents regional and thematic case studies, introducing students to contexts where research projects coherent with the discipline can be developed. (Descriptor 1) Students learn to apply historical and religious knowledge in dialogue with other disciplinary domains ( history, literature, art history, cultural heritage, economics, and political studies), gaining the ability to interpret religious phenomena in a critical and interdisciplinary way. (Descriptor 2) The course fosters the autonomous development of interpretive judgments regarding texts, practices, and religious representations, even in complex and cross-cultural contexts. It encourages historiographical and methodological reflection on the discipline itself. (Descriptor 3) Students become familiar with the specialized vocabulary of the discipline and are enabled to effectively communicate its content and issues, both to expert audiences and to a broader public. (Descriptor 4) The teaching fosters a propensity for independent research, encouraging the development of personal study paths and critical depth, also in preparation for further academic training or professional and teaching activities. (Descriptor 5) The course also includes themes related to the methodology, historiography, and teaching of the History of Religions, understood as a field of comparative research and reflection on religious plurality across time and space.
