The course is inserted between the basic disciplines of the degree course in History and aims to provide an adequate critical knowledge of Italian literature from the Seventeenth to the Nineteenth century and the fundamental tools for textual interpretation in their connection with the events of history.The teaching activity aims to start an analysis historically and philologically aware of the literary texts, founded on the mastery of the technical language.
The achievement of these educational objectives allows the student to acquire the foundations for an in-depth learning of ancient Italian culture and literature, developing the ability to compare and evaluate.
At the end of the course, the student will know the historical and cultural context of the Italian literary civilization of the period considered and will know how to correctly use a specialistic lexicon of base. It is expected to be able to understand, to analyze and to interpret the literary texts object of the course with the appropriate methods and tools, to identify and to examine themes, topics and ideas developed by the treated authors, to organize the contents in appropriate synthesis operating comparisons between texts, to formulate a reasoned judgment of value.
To adequately follow the lessons the student must possess the essential lines of the history of Italian literature and move between the texts and the authors of greater importance, recognize the formal and linguistic aspects of a text, have a good knowledge of the Italian language written and oral.
The history of Italian literature from its origins to the sixteenth century retraced in its most representative authors, both in prose and in poetry. The lessons will take place combining the historical context with the reading and analysis of the texts. The topics will be the following:
1.Baroque.
2. The age of Enlightenment.
3. Neoclassicism.
4. Romanticism.
5. Verism.
6. Decadentism.

The list of readings that will be carried out during the lessons will be uploaded to the University Moodle platform at the end of the course.

- M. Santagata - L- Carotti - A. Casadei - M- Tavoni, "Il filo rosso. Antologia e storia della letteratura italiana ed europea". Seicento e Settecento; Ottocento (2 voll.) Bari-Roma, Laterza, 2007 (Edizione B). Further materials will be uploaded to the Moodle platform.For the part of literary history, I recommend integrations with C. Segre-C. Martignoni, "Testi nella storia, Milano, Bruno Mondadori, 1991-92 and subsequent reprints.
- Notes from lectures.
The final verification of learning consists in an oral exam on the topics discussed and in-depth on the texts. The student must show to know the historical and cultural context, object of the course, to be able to frame, analyze and comment appropriately the texts and to be able to expose correctly and clearly the contents.
The evaluation criteria respond to different skill levels: from the minimum level of correct understanding of the meanings and the elements of historical-cultural contextualization of the literary texts at the highest level of knowledge deepened of the contents and the ability of critical reorganization of the same and of excellent exhibition competence.
Lectures: discussion of historical-literary and theoretical issues and analysis of texts subject to study.
Italian
The Italian Literature course consists of two inseparable parts (FT0475-1 e FT0475-2) therefore starting from the 2024 summer session students will take a single oral exam valid for 12 credits, which will include the course of the first and of the second module. Students who have already taken the exam of a module in previous academic years, will have to contact me to agree on the program with which to complete the exam.
