Learning objectives

By reading and analyzing literary texts written in diverse romance languages, the course of Romance Philology allows students to acquire and develop fundamental notions and knowledge in the fields of philology, historical linguistics and literature. It allows them to refine their ability to interpret and comprehend literary texts and to elaborate important elements of historical and cultural critical judgement. At the end of the course students will be able to autonomously confront with different levels of analysis to be applied to examined texts. They will also be able to prove their knowledge of disciplinary lexicon and to properly express the main contents of the course.

Prerequisites and basic notions

No prerequisites are required apart from the desirable interest and curiosity towards the subject matter.

Program

DANTE'S "RIME" AND THE MEDIEVAL ROMANCE LITERATURE

The course will deal with the collection of Dante's Rime from a comparative point of view.
In addition to an examination of the philological problems represented by Dante's lyric corpus in the broader framework of the lyrical collections of the main Romance literatures, the course will focus in particular on the literary analysis of the Rime through thematic, stylistic and linguistic comparisons with texts from French, Spanish and Ociitan literatures.
The main themes that will be investigated during the course are:
1. The relationship between Dante's lyrical poetry and Provençal literature: the plazer, the senhal, the sestina
2. The relationship between Dante's lyrical poetry and French literature: the Arthurian romances, the "Vers de la mort" by Hélinand of Froidmont, the song "Aï faus ris"
3. The relationship between Dante's lyrical poetry and Spanish literature: the "Libro de buen amor" and the "Cancionero de Baena"

The reference text for the study of the "Rime" is the following:
Dante Alighieri, "Rime", a cura di Paolo Gresti e Nicolò Premi, Brescia, Morcelliana-Scholè, 2023

Bibliography

Didactic methods

Frontal and conversational lessons (36 hours). The moodle platform is used for active communication between teachers and students, to provide further support material and to report any opportunities for in-depth study related to the discipline (conferences, seminars, presentations, etc.). Non-attending students will possibly be supported by the teacher in the study of previously agreed reference texts (non-attending students must contact the teacher from the start of the academic year).

Learning assessment procedures

The exam is oral.

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 candidate's preparation will be assessed both with questions of a general nature, and through the reading and analysis of one or more texts among those read and commented on during the course, or which are in any case part of the bibliography; the candidate will be asked to read on a photocopy or volume provided by the examiner. General questions may precede or follow the reading and analysis of the texts. The vote will be the numerical synthesis not only of the essential knowledge of the contents, but also of the candidate's ability to organize the exhibition and to use the required technical language.
