- knowledge of basic features of the of the German medieval cultural and literature and of the development of the resources related to them;
- knowledge of the typical linguistic features dealt with during classes and of language-change processes in phonology, morphology, syntax and lexicon;
- command of the three main digital tools: Wörterbuchnetz, Handschriftencensus, ANNIS search tool.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

Extent of the demonstrated skills; clarity and (terminological) accuracy of the answers.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

- Students who regularly attend classes: exercises during classes (30%), written exam (70% of final grade).
- Students who do not regularly attend classes ("Studenti non frequentanti"): written exam (100% of final grade).
