Teaching and Narrating Italian Literature
The course aims to tackle the key issues related to teaching Italian literature, focusing on educational objectives, teaching effectiveness, and canon construction, particularly for the final three years of upper secondary school. Emphasizing the role and practices of storytelling, which are increasingly significant in cultural and scientific dissemination to the general public, the course adopts a seminar format. Students will engage in analyzing teaching resources, practices, and literary dissemination experiences in both Italy and Europe. While designed to prepare students for professional opportunities, the course does not substitute the qualification pathways for teachers. By examining the methods, purposes, and effectiveness of literary storytelling, the course offers a perspective that is valuable for various professional careers.
