FRENCH LITERATURE	First Semester	8	FRAN-01/A		Learning objectives The course aims to investigate and highlight the links between the rhetorical tradition and literary production during the Ancien Régime. The course aims to provide students with some historical reference points and the philological, stylistic, rhetorical and hermeneutic tools to read and appreciate Early Modern texts. Through an literary and philological approach to the text, students will develop critical skills and the ability to work autonomously on texts from the 17th and 18th centuries, also learning to master the tools of the discipline and to find, select and use the secondary bibliography in the most effective way. The course will therefore provide students: 1. with solid theoretical knowledge (1: knowledge and understanding); 2. with the hermeneutic tools to understand the texts addressed (2: applying knowledge and understanding); 3. with the expressive tools to form, nourish, nuance and discuss their judgment on questions of literary history through a meticulous reading of the texts (3: making judgements); 4. with the theoretical and expressive tools to communicate clearly and effectively on these themes in front of a heterogeneous audience (4: communication skills); 5. with the knowledge and the tools to extend the reflection in an autonomous through the acquisition of the skills that will allow them to undertake the subsequent course of study (5: learning skills)
SPANISH LITERATURE I	First Semester	8	SPAN-01/A		Learning objectives 1. Knowledge and understanding: Students will acquire an organic mastery of the literary history covered in the course, analyzed not only through a chronological sequence but also through the application of rigorous theoretical and critical criteria. They will be able to contextualize works and movements within their socio-cultural framework, utilizing the main methodological tools provided by contemporary literary criticism to decode the complexity of the texts. Since the texts selected for the syllabus will be in the original language, prior knowledge of Spanish is required. 2. Applying knowledge and understanding: By the end of the course, students will be able to translate theoretical concepts into concrete analytical skills. Specifically, they will be capable of conducting a critical reading and an in-depth interpretation of the authors examined, developing the ability to establish intertextual comparisons. This competence will allow them to relate literary phenomena, themes, and genres belonging to the period under study, fostering a comparative approach even toward other foreign literatures in their curriculum. 3. Making judgements: Students will develop the capacity to reprocess the course content in a personal and critical manner. They will be able to present the themes addressed in the primary texts, critical bibliography, and the literary history handbook with rigor and depth. Particular emphasis will be placed on the development of an autonomous analysis of the literary text, combining formal aspects (structure, style, rhetoric) with semantic ones (meaning, ideology, reception), while formulating reasoned critical judgements. 4. Communication skills: The objective is to achieve full expository mastery, allowing for the clear, effective, and persuasive presentation of disciplinary content. Students must demonstrate the correct use of technical vocabulary related to literary criticism, showing the ability to structure complex arguments regarding literary history, the authors, and the works analyzed, while adapting the register to the requirements of scientific communication. 5. Learning skills: Students will develop an autonomous and flexible study method aimed at the continuous exploration of literary phenomena and major intellectual currents. Through the practice of critical reading and constant engagement with texts, they will acquire the research methodologies and bibliographic tools necessary to successfully pursue further advanced studies or undertake independent research in the fields of essay writing and textual criticism.
GERMAN LITERATURE	First Semester	8	GERM-01/B		Learning objectives 1) Knowledge and understanding The course provides an understanding of the most important authors and their most significant works of German literature from the Enlightenment, Sturm und Drang, and Classicism within a broad historical and cultural context.

SEMIOTICS	First Semester	8	PHIL-04/B		Learning objectives The course introduces students to the study of communication within a semiological framework by addressing questions such as: What does it mean for human beings to communicate? What are the fundamental modes of communication? How is persuasion exercised through signs, texts, narratives, and discursive practices? The course also aims to provide students with the conceptual and methodological tools required to identify, describe, and critically analyse some of the main pathologies of contemporary public discourse, distinguishing between their manifestations at the level of content (information disorder, hate speech, and stereotypes), interaction (aggression, silencing, and manipulation) and the communicative ecosystem (algorithmic selection, profiling, and virality). 1) Knowledge and Understanding The course aims to provide students with a basic knowledge of the main concepts, problems, and analytical tools of semiotics, with particular attention to the processes through which meaning is produced, interpreted, and circulated. Students will acquire an understanding of verbal, non-verbal, and multimodal forms of communication, persuasive strategies, and the main pathologies of public discourse. 2) Applying Knowledge and Understanding Students will be expected to use the concepts and terminology of semiotics to describe the general mechanisms underlying the functioning of languages and sign systems and to analyse concrete communicative phenomena. They will also be able to identify persuasive strategies and forms of manipulation, aggression, and silencing, as well as to assess the role played by media and algorithmic environments in the production and circulation of discourse. 3) Intended Learning Outcomes By the end of the course, students will be able to: - demonstrate knowledge of the main modes and structures of human communication; - identify and analyse processes of meaning construction, interpretation, and management; - apply semiotic tools to the analysis of texts, images, narratives, and communicative interactions; - critically identify phenomena of information disorder, stereotyping, hate speech, manipulation, and polarisation; - present and discuss the knowledge acquired using appropriate disciplinary terminology; - develop independent judgement and learning skills through practical exercises, discussions, and case-study analysis.

MODERN HISTORY	First Semester	8	HIST-02/A		Learning objectives The general purpose of the course is to understand the history of the Euro-American West throughout the long modern age (1350-1915). To this end, the course is divided between 1) a general part grounded on the study of the textbook; 2) a part centered on the recommended readings; 3) an interdisciplinary part that will address a cross-cutting theme. At the end of the course, according to the learning objectives established in Dublin students must been able to: 1) increase their critical awareness of historical events and identify the historical roots of current historical-political developments (Knowledge and understanding); 2) develop autonomous research projects, as original as possible, also by resorting to the examination of printed or digital sources (Knowledge and understanding applied); 3) analyze and synthesize original texts and documents, inspired by the works of the major scholars but also, if necessary, by dissenting from their theses (Autonomous judgment); 4) present the results of their readings, obviously recommended, integrated by digital research (Communication skills); 5) understand and fill any previous gaps (Ability to learn).
MEDIEVAL HISTORY	First Semester	8	HIST-01/A		Learning objectives Module 1. The module aims to offer a synthesis of medieval geopolitical evolution, with a focus on the Mediterranean area and continental Europe. Its overall aim is to provide the historical tools for a more conscious reading of the current map of Europe. Module 2. The module aims to offer an overview of the Medieval millennium through an in-depth analysis of a series of phenomena/themes habitually associated with it in the common imagination as keywords (e.g. feudalism, crusade, monasticism, etc.), with the goal of placing them precisely back in their context by clearing the field of anachronisms, clichés and manipulations. An important objective will also be the discussion of the notion of the Middle Ages itself, so as to make the student aware of the problematic nature of this notion, of the historiographical discussions arisen around the definition of its chronological limits, and of the origin of the "negative" view that continues to accompany the term Middle Ages even today in the common imagination and language. During the course, students will be provided with basic informations about the main political-institutional events that took place during the Medieval millennium, from the crisis of the 3rd century to the era of the 15th century Italian Signorie. At the same time, certain themes (such as monasticism, the invention of the notion of the Crusade, the invention of the institution of the Commune, etc.) that represent the most widespread elements in the construction of the modern imaginary relating to the Medieval era will be explored in depth. Students will thus be able to reconstruct the chronological timeline of the Medieval millennium, with a particular focus on the Italian, Frankish and Germanic-imperial areas, correctly identifying causal links and lines of continuity. In this way, students will also be able to correctly decrypt the historical and cultural informations with which they come into contact in the communicative reality, also facing with greater awareness the phenomena of ideological distortion to which the notion of the Middle Ages falls victim in common language, including that of the media. At the end of the course, students should be able, when confronted with an image or a geo-political map, to construct an explanatory discourse on the reality represented, on the basis of some basic indications.

GERMAN LANGUAGE AND TRANSLATION II	Second Semester	10	GERM-01/C		Learning objectives The course aims to develop strategies for reading and understanding written German through the recognition of the main morphological and syntactic phenomena. In line with the expected A2 level, the course provides the basic knowledge needed to work with short texts of controlled complexity, with particular attention to grammatical structures that are typical of German and to how they function, also from a contrastive perspective with Italian, so as to support more informed and motivated comprehension. Teaching activities prioritise guided reading of German-language texts, with particular reference to biographical texts about major writers and artists from the German-speaking world. Students will be enabled to grasp the overall meaning of the text and to identify relevant information, using the reading strategies practised in class. The grammatical knowledge acquired will be applied to comprehension and analysis, also through the guided use of support tools (glossaries, dictionaries, morphosyntactic charts), with the aim of consolidating a working method that can be transferred to similar texts. Alongside comprehension, the course promotes the ability to argue interpretative choices in a concise manner, recognising problematic points (ambiguities, constituent order, the values of frequent verbal and nominal forms) and evaluating plausible solutions on the basis of linguistic cues. From this perspective, a short translation excerpt from German into Italian is also included, intended not as an exercise in mere literal rendering, but as an activity designed to verify and reinforce comprehension, to motivate translation choices, and to reflect on structural differences between the two languages. The course also supports the development of appropriate communication skills: students will be able to present clearly, using basic linguistic terminology, observations on morphosyntactic phenomena and on the content of the texts read, as well as to summarise essential information and to rephrase simple passages. Finally, classroom activities aim to consolidate autonomous learning skills by fostering study and self-assessment routines (lexical organisation, cataloguing recurring structures, targeted revision of errors and difficulties), so that students can continue their language- acquisition pathway in an informed manner beyond the course.

FRENCH LITERATURE III		8	FRAN-01/A		Learning objectives The course aims to investigate and highlight the links between the rhetorical tradition and literary production during the Ancien Régime. The course aims to provide students with some historical reference points and the philological, stylistic, rhetorical and hermeneutic tools to read and appreciate Early Modern texts. Through an literary and philological approach to the text, students will develop critical skills and the ability to work autonomously on texts from the 17th and 18th centuries, also learning to master the tools of the discipline and to find, select and use the secondary bibliography in the most effective way. The course will therefore provide students: 1. with solid theoretical knowledge (1: knowledge and understanding); 2. with the hermeneutic tools to understand the texts addressed (2: applying knowledge and understanding); 3. with the expressive tools to form, nourish, nuance and discuss their judgment on questions of literary history through a meticulous reading of the texts (3: making judgements); 4. with the theoretical and expressive tools to communicate clearly and effectively on these themes in front of a heterogeneous audience (4: communication skills); 5. with the knowledge and the tools to extend the reflection in an autonomous through the acquisition of the skills that will allow them to undertake the subsequent course of study (5: learning skills)
SPANISH LITERATURE III		8	SPAN-01/A		Learning objectives 1. Knowledge and understanding: Students will acquire an organic mastery of the literary history covered in the course, analyzed not only through a chronological sequence but also through the application of rigorous theoretical and critical criteria. They will be able to contextualize works and movements within their socio-cultural framework, utilizing the main methodological tools provided by contemporary literary criticism to decode the complexity of the texts. Since the texts selected for the syllabus will be in the original language, prior knowledge of Spanish is required. 2. Applying knowledge and understanding: By the end of the course, students will be able to translate theoretical concepts into concrete analytical skills. Specifically, they will be capable of conducting a critical reading and an in-depth interpretation of the authors examined, developing the ability to establish intertextual comparisons. This competence will allow them to relate literary phenomena, themes, and genres belonging to the period under study, fostering a comparative approach even toward other foreign literatures in their curriculum. 3. Making judgements: Students will develop the capacity to reprocess the course content in a personal and critical manner. They will be able to present the themes addressed in the primary texts, critical bibliography, and the literary history handbook with rigor and depth. Particular emphasis will be placed on the development of an autonomous analysis of the literary text, combining formal aspects (structure, style, rhetoric) with semantic ones (meaning, ideology, reception), while formulating reasoned critical judgements. 4. Communication skills: The objective is to achieve full expository mastery, allowing for the clear, effective, and persuasive presentation of disciplinary content. Students must demonstrate the correct use of technical vocabulary related to literary criticism, showing the ability to structure complex arguments regarding literary history, the authors, and the works analyzed, while adapting the register to the requirements of scientific communication. 5. Learning skills: Students will develop an autonomous and flexible study method aimed at the continuous exploration of literary phenomena and major intellectual currents. Through the practice of critical reading and constant engagement with texts, they will acquire the research methodologies and bibliographic tools necessary to successfully pursue further advanced studies or undertake independent research in the fields of essay writing and textual criticism.
GERMAN LITERATURE III		8	GERM-01/B		Learning objectives 1) Knowledge and understanding The course provides an understanding of the most important authors and their most significant works of German literature from the Enlightenment, Sturm und Drang, and Classicism within a broad historical and cultural context. It provides a basic understanding of textual form and hermeneutics based on direct reading of the texts. Particular attention is paid to metre. 2) Application of knowledge Students apply their knowledge of Klopstock’s metre by translating some of the author’s odes into Italian independently. 3) Autonomous judgement The course encourages students to develop their hermeneutic skills by inviting them to reflect on the role of the immigrant (Goethe’s Iphigenia in Tauris), the conflict between social classes (Schiller’s Intrigue and Love and Lessing’s Emilia Galotti), and the clash between social norms and individual needs (Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther), through reading the texts. 4) Communication skills The course promotes students’ communication skills through active participation, classroom presentations on topics related to the course and dramatised readings by students in class. 5) Learning skills Students will learn to integrate their existing knowledge of the 18th century with the knowledge they acquire during the course. They will also learn to equip themselves with the hermeneutic and formal tools necessary for text analysis. Furthermore, they will learn to reflect on and explore the relationship between literature, history, philosophy, politics and sociology. Finally, they will learn to compare texts with their film and theatre adaptations.

With reference to applied knowledge and understanding: Ability to apply concepts and tools in the translation field, with particular reference to French/Italian. 3) Making judgements: Ability to use the two main translation methods, such as direct translation and oblique translation. 4) Communication skills: Expected level of communicative language is B2 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. 5) Learning skills: Students and students develop the learning skills that are necessary for them to continue in translation practice, such as the ability to organize the three translation Steps, morphosyntactic analysis of the text and cultural adaptation, where necessary.
ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND TRANSLATION III		10	ANGL-01/C		Learning objectives By the end of the course, students will have acquired knowledge and understanding of the main levels of English language analysis, both at the micro-level of the word (phonetic-phonological, morphological, and lexico-grammatical) and at the macro-level of discourse, with reference to the key concepts of Discourse Analysis and the main areas of sociolinguistic variation. This knowledge will also include the standardization process of English, its diatopic varieties in the contexts of first language (L1), second language (L2), and foreign language (EFL), as well as its role as both a local and global language. They will be able to understand texts (oral and written) and use linguistic resources appropriately and effectively in various communicative contexts, with skills consistent with level B2 of the CEFR. They will also develop: independent judgment, with an awareness of different discursive and sociolinguistic phenomena, the varieties and uses of English in relation to cultural and communicative contexts; Adequate communication skills in presenting disciplinary content, through the informed use of appropriate linguistic terminology; solid learning skills, instrumental in consolidating and independently expanding linguistic and theoretical skills as the student continues through the training program.
SPANISH LANGUAGE AND TRANSLATION III		10	SPAN-01/C		Learning objectives Starting from discourse analysis, further enhance basic skills (comprehension and production of written and oral texts) in an integrated way, reflecting on linguistic use, as well as on one's own learning process and on possible correction and improvement strategies. Knowledge and understanding: acquire a B2 linguistic competence level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. Applying knowledge and understanding: starting from discourse analysis, further enhance basic skills (comprehension and production of written texts, oral comprehension and expression) in an integrated way. Making judgements: reflect on linguistic use, as well as on one's own learning process and on possible correction and improvement strategies. Communication skills: acquire communicative mastery, which allows you to use the foreign language in an active and articulate way. Learning skills: learn to constantly test the knowledge acquired, promptly identifying gaps and needs.
GERMAN LANGUAGE AND TRANSLATION III		10	GERM-01/C		Learning objectives The German Language II–III course is structured into two complementary parts and aims to consolidate and further develop the analytical tools required for guided comprehension of written German and for linguistic reflection. The first part focuses on syntax, with particular attention to the extended topological model, passive constructions, modality, and modal particles; the second part introduces elements of text linguistics (Textlinguistik), concentrating on the concepts of Textsorte and Stil and on how grammatical and lexical choices contribute to organising and characterising texts. By the end of the course, students will have acquired more advanced knowledge of German sentence structure and of the functioning of key syntactic and pragmatic phenomena (the distribution of constituents within the extended topological model, forms and meanings of the passive, the expression of modality, and the role and interpretative rendering of modal particles). In parallel, they will understand the main assumptions of text linguistics: identifying distinctive features of different Textsorten, recognising stylistic and register choices, and understanding the relationship between communicative intention, genre conventions, and linguistic realisation. The acquired competences will be applied to the reading and analysis of texts belonging to different Textsorten, selected to highlight recurring syntactic configurations and differentiated stylistic choices. Students will be guided to integrate different levels of observation – sentence, clause/period, and text – reconstructing the function of structures such as the passive and modality in relation to communicative purposes and stylistic effects, and using reference tools (grammars, dictionaries, lexical resources) in a conscious way to solve comprehension problems. Reading will be accompanied by short translation activities from German into Italian, intended both as a comprehension check and as an exercise in motivated rendering, with attention to structural and pragmatic differences between the two languages, especially at critical points (word order, modal meanings, modal particles, and voice/diathesis choices). The course also promotes interpretative autonomy: students will be able to discuss, with reasoned argumentation, alternative analyses and translation solutions, assessing the appropriateness of a choice in relation to Textsorte, Stil, and context, and recognising ambiguities or textual implicatures (especially those conveyed by modality and modal particles). In this perspective, attention is directed not only to what a text says, but also to how it says it and why it says it that way, linking grammatical observations to effects of meaning and register. Finally, students will develop appropriate communication skills, being able to clearly present the results of syntactic and textual analysis, summarise the salient features of a Textsorte, justify interpretative and translation choices, and take part in guided discussions based on examples. The course is also designed to strengthen autonomous learning skills: organising work on texts, building personal repertoires of structures and genre/style indicators, monitoring recurring difficulties, and defining targeted study strategies, so as to make students progressively more independent in the analysis of German texts of various types. In parallel, the CEL component is aimed at achieving level B1 for second-year students and level B2 for third-year students. .

Students will acquire an understanding of verbal, non-verbal, and multimodal forms of communication, persuasive strategies, and the main pathologies of public discourse.

2) Applying Knowledge and Understanding
Students will be expected to use the concepts and terminology of semiotics to describe the general mechanisms underlying the functioning of languages and sign systems and to analyse concrete communicative phenomena. They will also be able to identify persuasive strategies and forms of manipulation, aggression, and silencing, as well as to assess the role played by media and algorithmic environments in the production and circulation of discourse.

3) Intended Learning Outcomes
By the end of the course, students will be able to:
- demonstrate knowledge of the main modes and structures of human communication;

Learning objectives

The general purpose of the course is to understand the history of the Euro-American West throughout the long modern age (1350-1915). To this end, the course is divided between 1) a general part grounded on the study of the textbook; 2) a part centered on the recommended readings; 3) an interdisciplinary part that will address a cross-cutting theme. At the end of the course, according to the learning objectives established in Dublin students must been able to: 1) increase their critical awareness of historical events and identify the historical roots of current historical-political developments (Knowledge and understanding); 2) develop autonomous research projects, as original as possible, also by resorting to the examination of printed or digital sources (Knowledge and understanding applied); 3) analyze and synthesize original texts and documents, inspired by the works of the major scholars but also, if necessary, by dissenting from their theses (Autonomous judgment); 4) present the results of their readings, obviously recommended, integrated by digital research (Communication skills); 5) understand and fill any previous gaps (Ability to learn).

Learning objectives

Module 1. The module aims to offer a synthesis of medieval geopolitical evolution, with a focus on the Mediterranean area and continental Europe. Its overall aim is to provide the historical tools for a more conscious reading of the current map of Europe.

Module 2. The module aims to offer an overview of the Medieval millennium through an in-depth analysis of a series of phenomena/themes habitually associated with it in the common imagination as keywords (e.g. feudalism, crusade, monasticism, etc.), with the goal of placing them precisely back in their context by clearing the field of anachronisms, clichés and manipulations. An important objective will also be the discussion of the notion of the Middle Ages itself, so as to make the student aware of the problematic nature of this notion, of the historiographical discussions arisen around the definition of its chronological limits, and of the origin of the "negative" view that continues to accompany the term Middle Ages even today in the common imagination and language.

During the course, students will be provided with basic informations about the main political-institutional events that took place during the Medieval millennium, from the crisis of the 3rd century to the era of the 15th century Italian Signorie. At the same time, certain themes (such as monasticism, the invention of the notion of the Crusade, the invention of the institution of the Commune, etc.) that represent the most widespread elements in the construction of the modern imaginary relating to the Medieval era will be explored in depth. Students will thus be able to reconstruct the chronological timeline of the Medieval millennium, with a particular focus on the Italian, Frankish and Germanic-imperial areas, correctly identifying causal links and lines of continuity.
In this way, students will also be able to correctly decrypt the historical and cultural informations with which they come into contact in the communicative reality, also facing with greater awareness the phenomena of ideological distortion to which the notion of the Middle Ages falls victim in common language, including that of the media.
At the end of the course, students should be able, when confronted with an image or a geo-political map, to construct an explanatory discourse on the reality represented, on the basis of some basic indications.

5) Learning skills: Students and students develop the learning skills that are necessary for them to continue in translation practice, such as the ability to organize the three translation Steps, morphosyntactic analysis of the text and cultural adaptation, where necessary.

Learning objectives

By the end of the course, students will have acquired knowledge and understanding of the main levels of English language analysis, both at the micro-level of the word (phonetic-phonological, morphological, and lexico-grammatical) and at the macro-level of discourse, with reference to the key concepts of Discourse Analysis and the main areas of sociolinguistic variation. This knowledge will also include the process of standardization of English, its diatopic varieties in the contexts of first language (L1), second language (L2), and foreign language (EFL), as well as its role as both a local and global language. They will be able to understand texts (oral and written) and use linguistic resources appropriately and effectively in different communicative contexts, with skills consistent with level B1 plus of the CEFR. They will also develop: independent judgment, awareness of different discursive and sociolinguistic phenomena, and the varieties and uses of English in relation to cultural and communicative contexts; adequate communication skills in the presentation of disciplinary content, through the informed use of appropriate linguistic terminology; solid learning skills, functional to the consolidation and independent expansion of linguistic and theoretical skills as the training continues.

Learning objectives

Develop a communicative approach in the use of a foreign
language, learning to package texts/speeches suited to the context, recipients and purposes of the event.

Knowledge and understanding: acquire a B1+ linguistic competence level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
Applying knowledge and understanding: starting from the most relevant translational and pragmatic notions, develop basic skills (comprehension and production of written texts, oral comprehension and expression) in an integrated way.

Learning skills: develop a communicative approach in the use of a foreign language, learning to "package" texts/speeches suited to the context, recipients and purposes of the event.

Learning objectives

The course aims to develop strategies for reading and understanding written German through the
recognition of the main morphological and syntactic phenomena. In line with the expected A2 level,
the course provides the basic knowledge needed to work with short texts of controlled complexity,
with particular attention to grammatical structures that are typical of German and to how they
function, also from a contrastive perspective with Italian, so as to support more informed and
motivated comprehension.

Teaching activities prioritise guided reading of German-language texts, with particular reference to
biographical texts about major writers and artists from the German-speaking world. Students will be
enabled to grasp the overall meaning of the text and to identify relevant information, using the
reading strategies practised in class. The grammatical knowledge acquired will be applied to
comprehension and analysis, also through the guided use of support tools (glossaries, dictionaries,
morphosyntactic charts), with the aim of consolidating a working method that can be transferred to
similar texts.

Alongside comprehension, the course promotes the ability to argue interpretative choices in a
concise manner, recognising problematic points (ambiguities, constituent order, the values of
frequent verbal and nominal forms) and evaluating plausible solutions on the basis of linguistic
cues. From this perspective, a short translation excerpt from German into Italian is also included,
intended not as an exercise in mere literal rendering, but as an activity designed to verify and
reinforce comprehension, to motivate translation choices, and to reflect on structural differences
between the two languages.

The course also supports the development of appropriate communication skills: students will be
able to present clearly, using basic linguistic terminology, observations on morphosyntactic
phenomena and on the content of the texts read, as well as to summarise essential information and
to rephrase simple passages. Finally, classroom activities aim to consolidate autonomous learning
skills by fostering study and self-assessment routines (lexical organisation, cataloguing recurring
structures, targeted revision of errors and difficulties), so that students can continue their language-
acquisition pathway in an informed manner beyond the course.

Learning objectives

The aim of the course is to enable the student to acquire a level of linguistic competence equal to B1/B1+ of the Common European Framework of reference for the knowledge of languages. This objective is achieved through the acquisition of lexical knowledge of groups of verbs, adjectives and pronouns, as well as conjunctions and adverbs; through the acquisition of knowledge of translation of figurative and non-figurative idioms, paronyms and verbs of motion; finally, through the acquisition of morphosyntactic structures corresponding to the B1/B1+ level.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES AND OUTCOMES: Travel literature has historically represented an important tool for learning about and documenting otherwise little-known realities. However, it has also contributed to shaping stereotypical images of the “East” and its inhabitants within the Western world. This course will provide critical tools to analyse the European perception of Iran during its modernisation process. In particular, it will examine the main historical dynamics of Iran during the Pahlavi era, with a specific focus on the period between the two world wars, essential for understanding many aspects of modern and contemporary Iranian society. This critical treatment will allow students to develop an in-depth understanding of the country’s historical transformations within the broader Middle Eastern context, and acquire tools to interpret European literary and cultural production related to the theme of travel. By the end of the course, students will have acquired the following skills: 1) Knowledge and comprehension skills: a basic knowledge of Iran’s geography, both historical (Persia) and contemporary, as well as of its ethnic and religious diversity. They will be able to analyse travel writings, considering historical periodisation, the biographies and ideological backgrounds of the travellers discussed, and the motivations behind their journeys; 2) Applying knowledge and comprehension skills: the ability to contextualise historical events and processes in the geographical areas covered during the course; 3) Autonomy of judgment: the development of critical thinking to recognise and evaluate Eurocentric stereotypes in the representation of the nomadic-pastoral populations of western Iran; 4) Communication skills: the ability to clearly and coherently present the topics addressed during the course, actively and proactively participating in lessons and workshops; 5) Learning skills: the ability to conduct bibliographic research and independently find open-access materials to deepen topics of interest.

Learning skills: learn to constantly test the knowledge acquired, promptly identifying gaps and needs.

Learning objectives

The German Language II–III course is structured into two complementary parts and aims to consolidate and further develop the analytical tools required for guided comprehension of written German and for linguistic reflection. The first part focuses on syntax, with particular attention to the extended topological model, passive constructions, modality, and modal particles; the second part introduces elements of text linguistics (Textlinguistik), concentrating on the concepts of Textsorte and Stil and on how grammatical and lexical choices contribute to organising and characterising texts.

By the end of the course, students will have acquired more advanced knowledge of German sentence structure and of the functioning of key syntactic and pragmatic phenomena (the distribution of constituents within the extended topological model, forms and meanings of the passive, the expression of modality, and the role and interpretative rendering of modal particles). In parallel, they will understand the main assumptions of text linguistics: identifying distinctive features of different Textsorten, recognising stylistic and register choices, and understanding the relationship between communicative intention, genre conventions, and linguistic realisation.

The acquired competences will be applied to the reading and analysis of texts belonging to different Textsorten, selected to highlight recurring syntactic configurations and differentiated stylistic choices. Students will be guided to integrate different levels of observation – sentence, clause/period, and text – reconstructing the function of structures such as the passive and modality in relation to communicative purposes and stylistic effects, and using reference tools (grammars, dictionaries, lexical resources) in a conscious way to solve comprehension problems. Reading will be accompanied by short translation activities from German into Italian, intended both as a comprehension check and as an exercise in motivated rendering, with attention to structural and pragmatic differences between the two languages, especially at critical points (word order, modal meanings, modal particles, and voice/diathesis choices).

The course also promotes interpretative autonomy: students will be able to discuss, with reasoned argumentation, alternative analyses and translation solutions, assessing the appropriateness of a choice in relation to Textsorte, Stil, and context, and recognising ambiguities or textual implicatures (especially those conveyed by modality and modal particles). In this perspective, attention is directed not only to what a text says, but also to how it says it and why it says it that way, linking grammatical observations to effects of meaning and register.

Finally, students will develop appropriate communication skills, being able to clearly present the results of syntactic and textual analysis, summarise the salient features of a Textsorte, justify interpretative and translation choices, and take part in guided discussions based on examples. The course is also designed to strengthen autonomous learning skills: organising work on texts, building personal repertoires of structures and genre/style indicators, monitoring recurring difficulties, and defining targeted study strategies, so as to make students progressively more independent in the analysis of German texts of various types. In parallel, the CEL component is aimed at achieving level B1 for second-year students and level B2 for third-year students.
.

Learning objectives

By the end of the course, students will have acquired knowledge and understanding of the main levels of English language analysis, both at the micro-level of the word
(phonetic-phonological, morphological, and lexico-grammatical) and at the macro-level of discourse, with reference to the key concepts of Discourse Analysis and the main areas of sociolinguistic variation. This knowledge will also include the standardization process of English, its
diatopic varieties in the contexts of first language (L1), second language (L2), and foreign language (EFL),
as well as its role as both a local and global language. They will be able to understand texts
(oral and written) and use linguistic resources appropriately and effectively in various communicative contexts, with skills consistent with level B2 of the CEFR. They will also develop:
independent judgment, with an awareness of different discursive and sociolinguistic phenomena,
the varieties and uses of English in relation to cultural and communicative contexts; Adequate communication skills
in presenting disciplinary content, through the informed use of
appropriate linguistic terminology; solid learning skills, instrumental in consolidating and
independently expanding linguistic and theoretical skills as the student continues
through the training program.

Learning objectives

Starting from discourse analysis, further enhance basic skills (comprehension and production of written and oral texts) in an integrated way, reflecting on linguistic use, as well as on one's own learning process and on possible correction and improvement strategies.

Knowledge and understanding: acquire a B2 linguistic competence level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
Applying knowledge and understanding: starting from discourse analysis, further enhance basic skills (comprehension and production of written texts, oral comprehension and expression) in an integrated way.
Making judgements: reflect on linguistic use, as well as on one's own learning process and on possible correction and improvement strategies.
Communication skills: acquire communicative mastery, which allows you to use the foreign language in an active and articulate way.
Learning skills: learn to constantly test the knowledge acquired, promptly identifying gaps and needs.

Learning objectives

Learning outcomes:
1. knowledge and understanding: reading and recognizing the syntactic structure of a Chinese advanced text and of a Chinese journalistic text (newspaper article in simplified characters); recognizing some technical terms of Chinese journalistic language; knowing the Chinese political organization and system.

2. applying knowledge and understanding: being able to translate a newspaper article (simplified): two levels of translation: first literally and then into correct and fluid Italian; being able to understand the main topic of a newspaper article on any Chinese newspaper; being able to talk in Italian about the Chinese political organization using the exact Chinese terms with the corresponding Italian translation;

3. making judgements: collect and understand data.
4. communication skills: talking about different topics, using appropriate terms.
5. learning skills.

At the end of the course the student is supposed to be able to achieve the B2 level of the QCER.

Learning objectives

1. Knowledge and understanding: consolidation and expansion of linguistic and grammatical knowledge acquired, knowledge of contemporary Arabic literature with the translation from Arabic into Italian of literary texts by various authors.
2. Applying knowledge and understanding: analysis and translation of literary and journalistic texts.
3. Making judgments: ability to formulate interpretative proposals from a translation point of view.
4. Communication skills: communication situations of increasing level of difficulty.
5. Learning skills: ability to apply the language and translation skills aimed at literary and journalistic texts.

Learning objectives

After the cultural approach to the historical reality of Portugal, the area in which the Portuguese language developed, the general educational objective of the course is to provide students with the reasons why Portuguese is today an language spoken by approximately 260 million people throughout the world – i.e. the historical movement of Portuguese maritime expansion and the centuries-old presence of the language in territories on the African coast, India, the Far East and South America.
The PORTUGUESE AND BRAZILIAN LANGUAGE AND TRANSLATION II and III course is divided into a first part on the variants of the Portuguese language - Brazilian Portuguese; Portuguese spoken in Africa and Asia; the modern Galego; Portuguese-based creoles. A translation laboratory is therefore promoted regarding the specific lexicons of the Portuguese language, in conjunction with the language lessons provided by the linguistic expert.
At the end of the course, the student’s independent judgment skills, the knowledge acquired and the communication and expression skills will be valued.
