Learning outcomes
[NB: After two years in which teaching was held in English, for this academic year the lecturer intends to experiment bilingual teaching. For each lecture, the first hour will be held in Italian, the second in English. Interested students are invited to participate in both; alternatively, they may choose to attend one or the other hour of each lesson. The structure and the reading list of the course are designed so that the two parts can be used both independently and together: there will inevitably be a relative overlapping (which may function as revision), but also a thread of autonomous discourse along each of the two halves.]
An introduction to the social and cultural history of the Italian Renaissance, and the most significant critical approaches to it, including an initiation to the direct reading of sources.
Program
As well as proposing a general overview, this year's course will analyse a case study: Savonarola and Renaissance Florence.
