Learning outcomes

Hermeneutics and Linguistic Practices The programme aims to encourage hermeneutic readings of philosophical texts by having students work directly on this technique during lessons. Therefore students will be required to express their own thoughts as well as listen to others' interpretations in the group activities directed by the course teacher. For this purpose, the course aims to offer the cognitive foundations of hermeneutical practice both in its historico-philosophical reconstruction and in the contemporary debate, emphasizing the different philosophical positions on the field. The purpose of the hermeneutical practice in the classroom is that students (females and males) can acquire an ability to interpret the philosophical texts proposed with a refined critical sense and with the ability to deal with different interpretations of the text itself. All this is done to create the habit of reading philosophical texts, which may subsequently be an acquired education for further situations in which interpretative skills are needed. It is particularly important that argumentative ability is acquired both in the oral form, here privileged, but also in the written form, for which short texts are required in the context of classroom work.

Program

SOLITUDE

"Solitudo ipse morbus", one could say by playing a little with an ancient motto. Is there anything sadder and more desperate than being alone? "When I happened to reflect on the various fears of men, on the dangers and penalties to which they are exposed to court, in war, where many contrasts, passions, daring and often evil enterprises arise, I have often told myself that all evils of men derive from one thing, from not being able to do nothing in a room ". On one side, therefore, there would be men, knights, their weapons, loves, with the joys and sorrows that everyday life entails: encounters, clashes, handshakes, bestiality, spitefulness, seductions, disappointments, goodbyes. The most varied actions accompanied or not by success. On the side of those who are alone in a room, what is there? Pascal says there is nothing, that nothing is to be done in there. But is it really true? It is true, indeed, that imagining the second situation is a bit distressing. But what is it that worries us? The thought of doing nothing? No, because this would be comforting in its own way. Doing nothing is not so dramatic. Who sleeps and does not catch fish is certainly less distressed than those who stand with their eyes wide open and sweaty hands waiting for something to tug the line. To worry, in the image used by Pascal, it is, if anything, the thought of what, left alone in a room, remains to be done.

Students are invited to obtain at least the books of de Maistre and Perec as soon as possible, because part of the course will be carried out in seminar form as a collective reading and commentary of the two texts.

Examination Methods

Written report of at least 10 pages whose subject must be previously agreed and which will be discussed orally. The report will serve to evaluate the vocabulary, the critical-argumentative capacity, the ability to autonomously rework what has been learned. The vote is expressed in marks from 18 to 30/30. The test is identical for attending and non-attending students. Non-attending students are invited to contact the lecturer at least one month before the date of the exam in order to decide together the topic of the report.
Part of the evaluation will depend on the work done by the students in the "seminar" parts of the course.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE
