The course is included in the interdisciplinary activities of the Bachelor's Degree Programme in Humanities and aims to strengthen the skills of philological analysis.
By the end of the cours students are expected to be able to:
- analyze and develop the bibliography on the subject;
- read consciously a critical edition, formulating judgements on editor's choises;
- know the basic philological problems of some fundamental works of the Italian literature;
- reinforce the awareness of the plurality of the methodological approaches to the text (with particular attention to the philological methodes).
The attendance of the Principles of Philology course is highly recommended. Foreigners attending this course are expected to be fluent in Italian and to have a general knowledge of the Italian literature.
The course aims to examine in depth the basis of the philological and critical analysis on the text, with particular regard to some case-studies.
The following works will be analyzed and discussed: 1) Boccaccio, Decameron; 2) Dante, Vita nova; 3) Leopardi, Canti. For each work a general introduction on the philological problems will be given and some passages of the texts will be read and analyzed from a philological point of view.
