Learning objectives

The main formative aim of the teaching within the degree course on Modern Languages and Literatures is to make the students acquirea high-level competence in critically approaching the classics of Spanish literature in depth. The results expected from their learning are the following: -Knowledge and heightened understanding: in-depth knowledge of the Spanish literature of the scheduled period: historical context, texts, genres, movements, and authors dealt with in the taught module, especially with reference to the themes of cultural interchange and to the formal differentiations of the literary phenomena. - “Applied” knowledge and heightened understanding: the students will acquire the necessary methodologies for putting them to use in working on literary texts within a historical and comparative perspective and in interpreting complex texts and implied meanings; they will have to be able to express themselves in fluent Spanish, arguing complex topics in a clear, ordered, and detailed way.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Program

General part: Spanish literature in the Middle Ages: literary history and cultural history. Planned topics: - History: main events from the Romanization of the Iberian Peninsula to the end of the Middle Ages. The Reconquista: between history, literature and myth - Cultural context: the plural peninsula - Literature: from its origins to the end of the Middle Ages. Monographic part: the epic: the Poem of Fernán González: the rewriting of a 'lost' epic poem. Teaching methods: teaching will be held in Spanish through frontal teaching, case studies and e-learning. The teaching will be active on the university's e-learning platform, where some mandatory content will be uploaded (lesson texts, handouts, etc.) and optional in-depth materials. This program is also valid for non-attending students who, however, are advised to contact the teacher during office hours. An individual reception service managed by the teacher is available throughout the academic year, at the times indicated on the web pages (without the need to make a specific appointment). Non-attending students are asked to contact the teacher in charge of the course.

Learning assessment procedures

The exam takes place in oral form in Spanish (chosen by the student in Italian for the bibliography in Italian) and consists of an interview aimed at verifying the depth and breadth of the knowledge acquired, the analytical and argumentative ability, the ability to connect knowledge and language skills in a systemic form. The topics being tested concern the entire program. A possible informal and optional written test regarding the topics of history and history of literature (open questions and multiple choice tests) will be decided and established during the course. For those who obtain a positive result in this test, the oral exam will focus solely on the commentary on the texts.
