Learning objectives

The course includes topics on textual criticism, codicology, palaeography, historical linguistics and cultural history (also by means of a Digital Humanities approach to texts and contents) and it aims at studying the main multidisciplinary aspects characterizing Germanic Philology. Expected Outcomes At the end of the course the student will prove: - to be able to employ at an advanced stage knowledge and methodologies (also digital methodologies), and cultural contents which are necessary for the analysis and interpretation of Germanic linguistic and literary traditions; - to have examined in depth the main multidisciplinary aspects of the discipline and to have strengthened the mastery of a correct and accurate specialized terminology; - To be able to apply autonomously the acquired knowledge and contents (in the field of codicology, palaeography, historical linguistics, textual-criticism and digital philology), to the analysis and interpretation of texts with the purpose of creating scholarly editions, archives and databases. This will promote knowledge of methodologies and applications in the field of philology, textual criticism and linguistics (in compliance with the learning outcomes of the Master Degree in Languages, Literatures and Digital Culture).

Prerequisites and basic notions

Knowledge, even elementary, of a modern Germanic language (English, German or a Scandinavian language) is preferable.

Program

Anna Cappellotto's course will delve into the topic of the reception of Antiquity in the Germanic Middle Ages, with the idea of tracing the path of the translatio studii of Carolingian origin through a selection of texts, which will be read, translated and commented on from the documents in which they are preserved.
Specifically, it will deal with the reception of works such as Ovid's Metamorphoses, Virgil's Aeneid, and the story of Apollonius King of Tyre in English and German medieval traditions (Albrecht von Halberstadt's Metamorphosen, Heinrich von Veldeke's Eneasroman, the Old English and Middle English Apollonius).
The second part of Anna Cappellotto's course will take up the fundamentals of textual criticism in order to explore the most recent developments in digital philology and scholarly publishing. From the texts studied in class, students will try to create edition prototypes based on an XML/TEI encoding file.

Didactic methods

The course will take place in presence. Any changes will be communicated before the start of the course by means of a notice on the teacher's personal page and on the Moodle platform, to which everyone is required to register. The bibliography indicated in Leganto will be further specified during the course. The course materials for attending students consist of the bibliography indicated in Leganto, the lessons and other materials that will be made available on Moodle. The program for non-attending students must be agreed with the teacher. Non-attending students are kindly requested to contact the teacher by email (using an institutional address @studenti.univr.it).

Learning assessment procedures

The exam will take place in oral form, according to the official exam dates published by the University. For attending students there is a pre-appeal which will be communicated during the course. For non-attending students, the exam is oral and follows the same procedures.

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

The exam will verify the skills acquired during the course and the ability to deal with the topics in the program and establish mutual connections. The correct exposition and the adequate use of the specialized terminology of Germanic Philology will also be evaluated.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The final assessment is expressed out of 30/30 (min. 18/30) and it is to be understood as an overall evaluation of the achieved results. The grade for Anna Cappellotto's course (30 hours) will be averaged with the grade for Prof. Cipolla's module (12 hours).
