Bibliografia
| Author | Title | Publishing house | Year | ISBN | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clericuzio, Antonio | La macchina del mondo | Carocci | 2006 | Questo testo, indicato in alternativa a quello di Maiocchi, è più adatto agli studenti di filosofia e di lettere. | |
| Maiocchi R. | Storia della scienza in Occidente, | La Nuova Italia | 2000 | Questo testo è indicato in alternativa a quello di Clericuzio perché più tradizionale e meno dispersivo. Si studino le seguenti sezioni (nell'impaginazione dell'edizione 2000): pp. 79-89 (fisica di Aristotele), 128-135 (Tolomeo e Galeno), 191-368 (Parte IV, V, VI), 543-49 (Conclusioni). Quest’ultimo testo non è più in commercio e va dunque fotocopiato oppure preso a prestito. |
Examination Methods
During the traditional oral interview the Professor will ask the student to discuss two or more topics of the programme. He will assess the quality of the acquired information, the logic of the argumentation, the originality and autonomy of thought reached by the student.
International students are kindly requested to get in contact with the Professor as soon as possible.
