Learning outcomes
Educational objectives
To acquire awareness of the difference between societies and cultures chronologically or geographically distant from one another; to familiarize with research tools which history has developed in conjunction with social theory; to develop strategies for the interpretation of relevant and diverse sources; to appraise the tradition of study in this field and discuss its problems.
Program
Syllabus
The course will concern the early modern religious life experience, particularly in the forms authorities regarded as transgressive. Witchcraft, its prosecution, and the varieties of belief in the supernatural will receive special attention.
The first part of the course will offer a survey of the basic concepts in historical anthropology with particular reference to the early modern period. The second part of the course will be entirely structured as a seminar. We will examine various sources (from archives, bibliograpy and/or iconography) that will be analyzed and discussed in the lecture room. This format will require an active participation of students, which will form a key element of the final assessment of their work.
Attendance is therefore recommended only if it can be continuous and active.
Reference books:
For those students who will be attending lessons the exam bibliography will be given during the course; P.P. Viazzo, Introduzione all’antropologia storica, Laterza, Roma-Bari, 2000 will be required reading.
Those who will not be attending will read P.P. Viazzo’s volume and three of the following books, or groups of books, of their choice:
