Learning outcomes
The historical approach, based on research, on the examination and criticism of the sources and their interpretation (susceptible to different solutions) is an unavoidable moment not only of the humanistic disciplines, but of all knowledge.
At the end of the course the student will have to demonstrate to be able to critically examine a source and to critically interpret a text of history (also the manual) enucleating the interpretative key, aware that the interpretations of historical facts can also be very different from each other. , but they must all be based on a correct examination of the sources.
By adopting complementary teaching methods (general history lessons, monographic lectures, seminar meetings, source analysis workshop) the course aims to provide the essential elements for understanding the reality and dynamics of European societies of ancient regimes (XVI-XVIII centuries) ) through a series of framework lessons dedicated to the main institutional and social aspects of the modern world. Facing a particular theme with a monographic character, the students will then be able to overcome the simplifications of manuals (producers of unwitting stereotypes) and the historiographical clichés, verifying the most familiar interpretative schemes on the sources and texts.
Program
General part: Introduction to the history of Europe in the modern age (1st module i)
To overcome the first part of the exam we need: a) a good basic knowledge of European history between 1453 and 1815; b) the ability to interpret the main moments of transformation at an economic, social, political-institutional, cultural level; c) the ability to analyze and contextualise a historical document.

Examination Methods
Written admission test and subsequent oral examination (only for those who have passed the written test), to be held in the same exam session, also in the context of two different appeals.
The written admission test, consisting of five open questions (one of historiographical character, one on the social and institutional dynamics of the modern age and one each on the three centuries object of study), will focus above all on the general part and on the knowledge of the main facts historical events occurred in the XVI-XVIII centuries, as well as on their historiographical classification (that is on the different possible interpretations of each one); the written test is aimed at ascertaining the knowledge of the general history and the ability of the student to apply logical arguments to the various proposed problems.
