Learning outcomes
The main aim is to introduce the themes of textual syntax from the point of view of theoretical linguistics and pragmatics (cohesion and coherence of the text, anaphora, deixis, information structure). We start from more general considerations on the concept of language and on the centrality that the reflection on language has being having - and continues to have - in the contemporary cultural debate.
Through online tests appropriately distributed and corrected during class some linguistic themes useful for the training of the teacher's cultural and professional figure will be reinforced.
EXPECTED FORMATIVE RESULTS
The course aims to provide students with a critical thinking about the fundamental concepts and methods of linguistics for the cultural and professional enrichment of the humanistic intellectual. At the end of the course the student must be able to:
• describe the basics of language study;
• recognize the fundamentals of the syntax of the text and of the information structure
• know how to apply the acquired knowledge in the future study career.
PREREQUISITES A knowledge of synchronic and diachronic linguistics at the introductory level is presupposed. It is advisable for those who never had a class in linguistic to consult the teacher and to use basic handbooks.
Program
MAIN TOPICS
1. The interest about the nature of language in the intellectual history.
2. The structure of the text according to the formal and functional characteristics of language and languages.
TEACHING
(1) Lectures dedicated to the subjects of the course, encouraging active participation of the students with questions and discussions, and, given convenient conditions, encouraging students to start autonomous short researches to be presented to the colleagues during class.
(2) Online tests (e-learning platform) mainly for the target "consolidation".
