Learning objectives

The course is an introduction to Germanic Philology and it aims at providing basic knowledge on multi-disciplinary topics such as codicology, paleography, textual criticism, cultural history, and historical linguistics characterizing the discipline (including basic knowledge for the digital treatment of texts and manuscripts). Expected Outcomes At the end of the course the student will have to prove: - to have acquired basic knowledge of methodologies and cultural contents which are necessary to analyse and interpret the literary traditions of Germanic areas; - to have acquired proficiency in the specialized vocabulary related to every field of the discipline; - to have acquired basic knowledge of the different specialized fields of Germanic Philology, mainly focussing on medieval history of books (also treated with the support of Digital Humanities tools and methodologies) according to the objective of the study programme.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Knowledge of a modern Germanic language (English, German or a Scandinavian language) is advisable.

Program

The course is divided into two parts. The First Part (18 hours, 9 lessons) will provide basic knowledge on the interdisciplinary aspects of Germanic Philology, dealing with ancient Germanic cultures (Roman age, Middle Ages), historical-comparative linguistics of Germanic languages, manuscript culture (paleography, codicology , history of the book) and the basic knowledge of text criticism and editions of texts of the Germanic vernacular traditions. The Second Part (18 hours, 9 lessons) will deal with the mythological section of Snorri Sturluson's Edda, with a general introduction to the work (historical-cultural context, manuscript tradition, style and contents) and with readings of the Prologue, and related sections to creation and the apocalypse

Didactic methods

As indicated by the University for the academic year 2022/2023, the course will be in presence. Any changes will be announced before the start of the course on the instructor's web page and on the Moodle platform, to which everyone is required to sign up. The course materials for attending students consist of the selected bibliography in Leganto, the lectures and other materials that will be available on Moodle. The program for non-attending students must be agreed in advance with the instructor. Non-attending students are supposed to contact the instructor via email (please use your institutional address @studenti.univr.it). The selected bibliography in Leganto will be further detailed during the course.

Learning assessment procedures

The exam will take place in oral form, according to the official exam calls published by the University. For those attending, there is an ongoing test which will take place during class time and the date of which will be communicated during the course. For non-attending students the exam is oral and uses the same methods.

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

Evaluation criteria

The exam aims both to assess the knowledge acquired during the course and the ability to address the topics and establish connections among them. The evaluation will also concern the correct presentation as well as the appropriate use of the technical language of philology.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The final assessment is expressed out of 30/30 (min. 18/30) and it is to be understood as an overall evaluation of the achieved results.
