Didactic methods

Frontal lessons
Teaching material sent, upon request, via e-mail to attending students.
The lectures are recorded and are available on the moodle teaching platform.
The teaching method is consistent with the educational objectives of the teaching and, more generally, of the master's degree course in History of the Arts. Consequently, on the one hand, it outlines the fundamental legal institutions of the subject, highlighting the profound connections between them existing and highlighting the impact of the historical-artistic discipline on their formation and evolution; on the other hand, it provides the essential logical and legal tools for the solution of concrete cases.
