Learning objectives
The aim of the course is to get a deeper knowledge about some kinds of archival sources, to understand the context in which they were produced, but first of all in order to be able to evaluate their potential for research purposes in history of art.
Prerequisites and basic notions
None
Program
The course aims to provide the basic knowledge of film and television criticism methodologies in general terms. In particular, some of the most important paths of Italian criticism from silent to the present day, from printed paper to the web will be illustrated. We will also analyze some emblematic models relating to as many exponents of the newspaper and specialist criticism. The course aims to offer students historical, methodological and practical tools to analyze the different forms of film criticism. In a first module, the main methodological models of film criticism will be addressed, in particular by analyzing the activity of Italian and foreign critics. The second part will focus on the various forms of critical activity in Italy, from its origins to the present day. The itinerary will be divided into detailed historical segments: from the years of the silent era to those of fascism and from the long post-war period up to the experience of the web, between professionalism and spontaneous practices. Thematic in-depth meetings animated by professionals and scholars are also planned, who will enrich the training path. Individual critical case studies related to films will also be taken into consideration, the titles of which will be communicated at the beginning of the course and accompanied by targeted handouts provided by the teacher.

The student will have to demonstrate that they have learned the fundamental notions of film and media theory. Warning: the latter is intended as an alternative to the essay. - 2. Written paper (thesis). A written paper (thesis) may be submitted by agreement with the teacher. Warning: the latter is intended as an alternative to the written exam. - Written papers and term papers will be written in Italian.
