Learning outcomes

The course aims at introducing the students to the study of Italian literary by analyzing an author, a definite historical period or a theme who are historically significant, mostly for the comparison with the literary foreign traditions.

Program

- Introduction to the Italian literature of the eighteenth century. The student will be know the main lines of Italian literary history in the eighteenth century, with particular reference to the authors and the genres taught during the lesson.
- Birth and dissemination of consumer goods in the 18th century: journalism, novel, comedy, opera theater, particularly in Venice, there is a rapid and fortunate dissemination of journalism, not just the learned, of the novel, which - though not achieving the results of the European novel coevo - still has its fortune, even editorial. The eighteenth century is the century of the reform of the comedic and widely spread European theater of the melodrama. The course intends to show the developments in consumer literature, through the analysis of some significant texts, with particular attention to their fortune in the European context.
